ORIGINAL ART & INSPIRATION BY PAUL & KATHY BOECHER©
Gentle waves lap up against the base of this bastion,
It seems to be going nowhere – stalled,
Sun blazes down,
Creating reflections of a past life,
A life filled with good times.
Rain beats against it,
Destroying any semblance of glory,
Cold and snow integrate into its space,
It stands alone,
Steadfastly it has stood the test of time,
Diligently it holds sway again adversity,
It is no longer filled with laughter and joy,
It sleeps alone,
Within the confines of a relentless river,
This old haven of delight,
Now fades into oblivion,
It lives alone,
Never to feel the caress of that raging water,
Never to feel the gentle tug of the current,
Never to dance with the sky and waltz with the wind,
It waits alone,
Never to rush through the torrential waves,
To feel life surging through each ripple,
To be suffocated with laughter,
It dies alone.

About atimetoshare.me
As I reach the end of my years, I find I have a lot of good information stored up in this old decrepit mind of mine. If I don't write it all down, it may vanish and no one will have the advantage of my thoughts. This is why this blog exists. I love the Lord, Jesus with all my heart and soul. I know I'm undeserving of all He's done for me, but I also know that His love is beyond my comprehension.
I've always wanted to write. I never kept diaries, but tucked my thoughts in my head for future reference. I use them now in creating stories, plays, poetry and my blog.
I continue to learn every day. I believe the compilation of our time spent with God will have huge affect on the way we live. I know I'm a sinner and I need a Savior. I have One through Jesus, Christ.
My book, "Stages - a memoir," is about the seven stages of life from the perspective of a woman. It addresses all the things girls and women go through in life as they travel it with Jesus, and it is available on Amazon.com.
