Butterfly Kisses � �� Shannon Heyman � The Rose There she is standing tall, the Rose, arrayed with the beauty of her Lord. As she blossoms and grows, she opens up her petals to catch the mercy drops of dew every morning, every morning. There she is standing tall, stretching out, showing her thorns, which remind her of her impurities and forgiven sins of the past, the sins of the past. There she is standing tall, facing towards the Sun, the Son is shining on her now showing all her beauty, the beauty of the rose. There she is standing tall, swaying back and forth in the wind of the Holy Spirit, in the presence of her Lord, In the mighty presence of her Lord. There she is standing tall, a handiwork made by the Lord's own holy Hands, His holy Hands. This is the beauty of the Rose! �� Reconciliation Restoration, reconciliation Comes from the heart of the Father He is breaking down dividing walls and Joining together all of His sons and daughters Let there be restoration, reconciliation for He is wiping every tear, in every eye, it is for those tears He died. He turns mourning into joy, a gift for every girl and boy He gives beauty for ashes, for it is healing every heart that has been torn apart. Let there be restoration, reconciliation He is calling every sister, every brother to gather around and to join hands. Across this dry and thirsty land for it is His grace that abounds. Let the rivers of life flow out of the bellies of everyone for it comes from the Only begotten Son.

I started writing during a major crisis I had been going through and felt the need to express my feelings on paper and it ended up in poetry or song. I started sharing it with people and many told me I have the talent to write poetry and songs. It was a gift that had started coming out long ago but due to my own insecurities it went back into hiding and has only recently as seven months ago been brought back to light again but more powerfully than ever before. Most of the poetry I have written are my feelings, healing processes and perceptions of Our Lord Jesus. The poem "The Rose" was originally written for my best and closest online friend, Angela. The Lord had given me eyes to see her heart and that poem describes her. But I also feel it befits many sisters in the Lord everywhere, for that is how the Lord sees us all. "Reconciliation" was written at almost the exact same time as the Colombine shootings in Littleton, Colorado. I did not know it was happening then until four hours after I had written the poem. I had originally written this piece in response to a broken friendship with my best friend; I was seeing the heart of our Lord and how He desires reconciliation amongst all His children, for He does love us all. "Promises" is one of my most recent ones that I have written. I have, throughout the last seven months, been continually reminded by the Lord that He never breaks His promises and that we just need to trust Him and let Him do His work in us. This is where I am at the healing process. It hasn't been easy, and has been long and painful. I know He hasn't forgotten me and He will never forget you. Just trust in Him, rest and wait and see what He will do in your life. � �� � ANNOOOLAND'S Various Links The Annchor | Devotions | Inspirations | The Blessed | Crucifixion | 15 Prayers | John 3:16 | ROS | Rose Garlands | Pan-A-Vision | AnnDangered | Panpals | Panasia | PanIsland | Pantasy and Legends Pan, Peter and Ann | Awards | My Awards | AnnHancer | Home � Shannon Heyman's Homepage � � Get your FREE Yahoo!GeoCites Homepage WebMistress does not support nor endorse the advertisements that are displayed at random below on all her pages.

The Rose
There she is standing tall, the Rose, arrayed with the beauty of her Lord. As she blossoms and grows, she opens up her petals to catch the mercy drops of dew every morning, every morning.
There she is standing tall, stretching out, showing her thorns, which remind her of her impurities and forgiven sins of the past, the sins of the past.
There she is standing tall, facing towards the Sun, the Son is shining on her now showing all her beauty, the beauty of the rose.
There she is standing tall, swaying back and forth in the wind of the Holy Spirit, in the presence of her Lord, In the mighty presence of her Lord.
There she is standing tall, a handiwork made by the Lord's own holy Hands, His holy Hands. This is the beauty of the Rose!

Brief Autobiography
Hi, I'm Shannon Heyman, mother of two boys, Justin Everett, age< 5 and Aaron Benjamin, age 2. I have been married to Bill for 12 years and live in California.
I started writing during a major crisis I had been going through and felt the need to express my feelings on paper and it ended up in poetry or song. I started sharing it with people and many told me I have the talent to write poetry and songs. It was a gift that had started coming out long ago but due to my own insecurities it went back into hiding and has only recently as seven months ago been brought back to light again but more powerfully than ever before. Most of the poetry I have written are my feelings, healing processes and perceptions of Our Lord Jesus.
The poem "The Rose" was originally written for my best and closest online friend, Angela. The Lord had given me eyes to see her heart and that poem describes her. But I also feel it befits many sisters in the Lord everywhere, for that is how the Lord sees us all.
"Reconciliation" was written at almost the exact same time as the Colombine shootings in Littleton, Colorado. I did not know it was happening then until four hours after I had written the poem. I had originally written this piece in response to a broken friendship with my best friend; I was seeing the heart of our Lord and how He desires reconciliation amongst all His children, for He does love us all.
"Promises" is one of my most recent ones that I have written. I have, throughout the last seven months, been continually reminded by the Lord that He never breaks His promises and that we just need to trust Him and let Him do His work in us. This is where I am at the healing process. It hasn't been easy, and has been long and painful. I know He hasn't forgotten me and He will never forget you. Just trust in Him, rest and wait and see what He will do in your life.
