                                    SHELTER

Take me Please,      A Storm is coming.           

                                                 I Need Shelter

No, not a Hurricane or a Tornado.

It's not Lighting and Rain or even a Flood. 

                                                 Hide me Please.

Help, my Child!    Please I'm on my Knees. 

                                                 The Storm Is Here!

Call 911!       I Can't take any more!

I Don't want to run, I Don't want to hide.

                                                 I Want My Life...

To walk with my head high, I Know Who I Am!

Where I've been, never to go back again!

Leave it behind. A Hard Lesson I have learned. 

                                                 You took us in.

I can sleep at night. My Child, My Angel is asleep. 

New friends,  People who care.

Other people who have been there!

                                      The Storm Has Passed.

I can walk down the street.

Take my Child to the park.

Go any where that I want, to Eat!

                                                 Shelter

A Safe Place in between.

THANK YOU LORD for people who care!

                             OUR LIVES WERE SPARED!

Angels Tears

(Written by a recent resident)

Angels are crying today. See the tears falling far and wide. 
People are being hurt, you see and God and the angels don't understand why.

The Bible says to Love one another.
Not to hurt and kill, or maim.

Angels are crying for all the blood that's being shed. The Devil thinks its funny, he's laughing more and more.
But God says, "Don't hurt my children, with a mighty roar.

It doesn't matter if they are young or old, you see.
To God it's all the same.
You don't hurt my children.

Or you'll answer to me before Judgment Day.
It doesn't matter what shade you are,
Or what's your given name.
You're all Sisters and Brothers
And I love you just the same.
I put you on earth to live together, to be in harmony.

Please Open your eyes!
Look around you my children before its too late.
And the harm of another bring Death close to thee. Get out my child, an angel is with thee.
Look around the corner and you will see there are people I have sent to you to keep you safe from harm. They will open the door and greet you with open arms.

Be safe my child from this day on.
My Love will be with thee.
Angels on Earth and Heaven are helping me watch over thee!
