I own a Christian pageant company and I am considering hosting a pageant in Tucson towards the end of the year. The pageants that I host focus on spiritual beauty and give teens an opportunity to grow spiritually, socially and economically.

My next pageant is planned for 2010 but I will host one in 2009 if there is enough interest. Please reply to this blog if you know young ladies between the ages of 13 and 18 that would be interested in competing for a $1,000 cash scholarship and other prizes… Continue

I want to love long like an instrumental song played on eternity’s piano. I want to love long like a fight that carries on refusing to cease from the battle. I want to love strong like a Hawaiian palm standing mighty once the hurricane is gone. I want to love strong like my heart belongs in the makeup of a million atomic bombs.

Is anyone else out there a hopeless romantic like me praying that true love filled with romance will become hopeful?

Is forever love just a dream like it seems or is th… Continue

I’m at home as I fly in the sky, where angels roam playfully on high,
While thunder groans as winds whisper and sigh,
Blown through the clouds before they start to cry,
From the zone of heaven’s beautiful blue eyes,
I am a dove, the symbol of peace and love,

Wishing we had never ever been severed,
Kissing the hopes of destiny’s endeavor,… Continue

Silence is sometimes the violence that can cause a word that is heard to be murdered…

You heard me but didn’t listen and then you looked deeply into my eyes without paying any attention…

To what my heart said so now the words lie there dead sleeping death’s slumber in my head…

Within the grave amid my lips as by your ears I’ve been gypped,
There is one thing I forgot to mention when you put my expression on detention…

I’ve got something to say that will make the night light up like noon day,… Continue

Black Woman

I am a black woman. Eyes like amber because I am a jewel.
Anyone failing to see that must be a blind fool.
They must call me black; the color of coal,
Knowing I have diamonds inside that glow,
And I sparkle in the day while I glimmer at night,
The waves of ebony oceans bow at my very sight,
Because I am royalty; all the colors of the rainbow are combined in me;
Like gushing oil wells my riches rush forth free,
I am a black woman. I shine with skin like brass,.
My heritage like sand… Continue
