THE ANIMATION ON THE RIGHT IS THE FIRST ONE I MADE. I LEARNED TO MAKE THESE BY MYSELF, WITH NO BOOKS. I'M PROUD OF MYSELF FOR ALL THAT I LEARNED. ELEVEN MONTHS AGO I WAS COMPUTER ILLITERATE. I'M GLAD I FOUND THIS PAST TIME TO HELP ME THROUGH THE GRIEVING PROCESS. I VISIT BRANDON'S SITE EVERYDAY. I ALSO HELPED SEVERAL PARENTS FROM MY SUPPORT GROUP, POS, BUILD MEMORIAL SITES FOR THEIR KIDS. I PRAY TO GOD THAT YOU NEVER HAVE TO FEEL THIS PAIN, THIS SILENT SCREAM, THAT IS INSIDE OF ME. TALK TO YOUR KIDS. MAKE SURE YOU KNOW WHAT IS BOTHERING THEM. THE POEM ON THIS PAGE I WROTE TO BRANDON SHORTLY AFTER HE DIED. IT IS BEING PUBLISHED IN THE OCTOBER 2005 EDITION OF "ETERNAL PORTRAITS", PUBLISHED BY THE INTERNATIONAL LIBRARY OF POETRY. AND THIS POEM COMES FROM DEEP INSIDE MY HEART.

 

ASAP

 

There's work to do, deadlines to meet;
You've got no time to spare,
But as you hurry and scurry-
ASAP - ALWAYS SAY A PRAYER

In the midst of family chaos,
"Quality time" is rare.
Do your best; let God do the rest-
ASAP - ALWAYS SAY A PRAYER.

It may seem like your worries
Are more than you can bear.
Slow down and take a breather-
ASAP - ALWAYS SAY A PRAYER

God knows how stressful life is;
He wants to ease our cares,
And He'll respond to all your needs
A.S.A.P. - ALWAYS SAY A PRAYER
