Mountain

It's high up in the sky,
Up to heavens gate.
It's amazing what we have down here, 
All that he creates.

The beauty that it shows,
You can't get anywhere.
It's so addicting, every piece,
Sometimes I stop and stare.

It can be a home, 
A shelter from the rage. 
You can feel the calm and peace,
And not have to engage.

Serenity and peace,
Are always at that place.
If any problem you need solve,
Come and pray for Grace.

Mountains are a holy place,
Where we are close to him. 
Receiving revelation, 
Filling to the brim.

View

In the world down here,
There seems to be no love.
But I can feel it near,
Perhaps from up above.

He loves us all so much,
And wants us to return.
To sit upon the throne's,
The ones that we have earned.

Someday I will return,
And see my father dear.
He'll look into my eyes,
And say "my child, come here."

He'll take me in his arms, 
And say "I love you so.
Come here and follow me,
There's something I must show."

He showed me all the heavens,
The beauty that surrounds.
Everywhere we went,
All upon the grounds.

He took me to a room,
'Twas beautiful in there.
No words could help describe,
The feelings that we shared.

Inside I saw a chair,
He said it was a throne.
I took a seat right then,
And knew that I was home.

Waves 

Crashing
Full of power
Breaking at the end
Vibrations go on
Never to be found again
Everything about it is moving
It moves everywhere
However it cannot leave
The shining sun
Glistening on top
It shines so fiercely
Yet always a constant

Him

Every time I stand here,
I stand here all amazed.
Thinking of the things he did,
And why he ever came.
 
He came to teach the gospel,
And show us his true light.
Then he died upon the cross,
To give everlasting life.

He is the great example,
In our life today.
He wants us all to follow him,
And Always to Obey.

Hi :)

Hi Everyone! 
  My name is Jerrica. I have officially created a blog, Yay! I'm thinking I'm going to write some of my poems on here! Well, I guess I should start by telling a little bit about myself. I'm a senior in high school, and very excited to graduate. I like to Irish dance, write poetry, draw with side walk chalk, read, make new friends, eat Clementines, go on walks, look at stars and smell the rain. My family is Amazing. I have two wonderful parents, and five fantastic brothers and sisters. My oldest brother is serving a mission in Italy.
