“Table of Contents”

| Laura Lee Bonde

God’s writing a book in me
that will help millions
I know it
I sense it
it’s real

me
of all people
why not

this subject
of all things
why not

without expecting
He planted seeds
without asking
He watered

now time to grow
in His direction
bearing fruit
in His light

“Yesteryear”

| Laura Lee Bonde

a year that held
so much for me
so much to remember
and grow from

it was the year
of many beginnings
and some endings
a year of growth
and struggling

of writing my first poem
and then four hundred more
of writing thirty songs
some to music
of starting a business
walking away from a job

spending more time with
my kids
the ones who matter most

spending time with the youth
with the homeless
with good friends

so much to hold onto
so much to let go of

and all of it experienced
through God’s heart
