My

The Orincess

This is a poem taken from my book: How to Handle Adversity. (1998).

I wrote this poem a month before my 18th birthday in 1964.

Lord, without hope of earthly good,

With no fear of night terror,

I will proclaim your testimonies,

To powerful and simple men.

I want to be serene, serene, always serene,

Like mother nature on autumn afternoons,

With the royalty of your presence,

That has brought your sweet calm.

I want to love you over beings and things,

Because you are my strength and my song,

Because you light up the stars and perfume the roses,

And you keep my soul from the dark ocean!

You are a refuge against the storm!

Contemplating the immensity of the universe,

And seeing your beauty in nature,

I can only praise you!

And from the depths of my being shout a:

Long live Jesus Christ! Hallelujah!

This is my Story! What’s Yours?

This is my brother’s heartbreaking story. I want to share his sentiments with all animals’ lovers.

April 30, 2005, a sad day forever etched in my weary mind. I was there at her birth and side by side when she died, holding on to her warm, yet limp body, so very, very tight.

I set her spirit free so she could chase her guide, the one, the only one, her precious dragonfly.

She was my friend, the greatest of all, my Gypsy, my poodle, my beast, my old girl, a piece of my soul!

My Jeepee girl, forever in my mind, you are still alive! I can see you running, jumping, getting your 10:00 PM snack, playing dead, licking the sweat of my forehead, and most of all, chasing dragonflies!

Dragonflies will lead me to you!

Dragonflies will guide you to me!

In time, somewhere, somehow, once more, reunited we will be…..

My Gypsy girl, her dragonflies, and Me!

In loving memory of my old girl and best friend, Gypsy Fearless Arias

My poodle, rest assured that if there is a way, I will find you once again!

Your human friend, William Arias 4/30 05

This is my bother’ story! What’s Your?
