Author’s Note
Many people who read these poems will ask, “How can the author pen such rough and sometimes sensual poems and claim to be a born again Christian?
Three answers:
First, some of these poems were written over a 40-year period.
Second, almost half of the book is about God, forgiveness, redemption and salvation.
Third, when you take Jesus into your heart and sincerely confess your sins, you are not the person you were before.
“Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.”
Romans 12:2
