Sisters

Sisters make the best of friends they'll be there for you till the end. They'll walk with you and talk with you even laugh and smile. They will be there for you if you need to cry for awhile. My favorite thing about sisters though is that the more we work together the stronger we grow. by Kim VanVoltenburg

A Special Person

I know a special person who means the world to me. She works all day and to be with her children she'll find a way If I need to talk her door is always open She makes a Sunday dinner and invites everyone In such a wonderful person you could never find A bigger WINNER! by Kim VanVoltenburg

A Parent's Cry

Why do the parents cry? They cry because their children die Take a stand to keep the guns out of the childrens hands. Too many children have lost their lives. Must more children die? Why? What can we do? Take a stand! Join hearts and hands. We cry for those who have gone before We need to help those still here to live a full life and look for the good. Stay away from the bad. Choose your path well because no more parents need to cry! And for Heaven's sake no more children need to die! by Kim VanVoltenburg

Gang Wars

A gang war starts and bullets fly innocent children are standing by. Chidren are running, their hearts are racing. Reaching for the nearest door. Shots are fired in the air, weapons echo everywhere. People scream hoping that it's just a dream! In the distance someone cries "Thank the Lord nobody died." Silence falls throughout the night This time....... Everyone will be all right. by Kim VanVoltenburg

Daddy Loves Mommy

I heard him yelling at her yesterday, but daddy loves mommy. I saw him hitting her today, but daddy loves mommy. I saw him reaching for his gun, but daddy loves mommy. We will bury her tomorrow, All because my daddy has always loved my mommy. by Kim VanVoltenburg
