The sun rises in the east
It's beautiful to say the least
It burns as red as rubies and fire
It's round and rolls in the sky as a tire

The colors reflecting on the lake
Such vivid images my mind can make
The rays shoot across the morning
As if the earth with jewels adorning

The mountains far across the way
My favorite place I always say
The rocky sides with a pure snow cap
Sitting I take the camera from my lap.

I raise the camera and snap the scene
Against the house I now lean
Suddenly the mountain explodes
What will become of us only God knows.

I run inside to escape the raining ash
I look at the pictures when earth and sky clash
The molten lava seemed to flow from the sun
Down on the earth, but not harming anyone

Then I drift out of that world
I find myself under my blankets curled
It was just a weird imagined dream
No matter how very real it did seem!

Favorite Quote:
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn&#039;t serve the world. There&#039;s nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won&#039;t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We are born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It&#039;s not just in some of us, it&#039;s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.<br /> -Marianne Williamson
