CROSSROADS
You’re finally at a crossroad,
And you wonder, “Which way do I go?
Just how did I get to this point ?”
You think back…you really don’t know.
The things that you chose…right or wrong?
Decisions that you made long ago?
Does what you decided then, matter today?
Should answers have been “Yes” or “No?”
You’re finally at a crossroad…
This time, for the rest of your life.
Will you favor the comfort of peace?
Or will you wrestle, forever, with strife?
Jesus is calling, “Take my path.”
He’s the one who died for your sin.
He promised to forgive ALL your past.
Choose His way, and you surely will win!
RAIN
It’s been raining now, for such a long time
The overcast skies are so dark and gray.
Raindrops play tunes on the garbage cans.
No sun at all, now, for over a day.
Be sure to dress warmly, if you’re going out.
It’s windy outside, and so damp and cold.
Be careful of the sniffles and colds in the air.
It’s the season for this, or so I’ve been told.
This is no time for depression to come.
God holds the weather, all in His hand.
Do you want to see the flowers in spring?
It’s all this rain that the flowers demand.
Into our lives a little rain must fall.
God allows these ‘upsets’ so we will know,
That, even like the flowers in spring,
Through each ‘upset’ we have, He helps us grow.

About the Book
It was back in the late 1970’s that I first began to write poems. In all the poems that God gave me, there Were some that related to teens and young people. I separated those into a book called “Heavenly Rap”.
The rest of my poems are enclosed in this book, with a ‘diversity’ of subjects…poems for all Seasons.
I have several favorites, and one of them is Called ‘Noah’. This poem is about my baby parakeet. He died Christmas of 2003. I had him for six ‘cute’ years. It Will seem unbelievable, but every thing I wrote about Him is true. In my poem, ‘The Auctioneer’, a lost soul Is being auctioned to the highest bidder. Who will the Highest bidder be? Another favorite is ‘Baby Tree’. It Deals with ‘attitudes’. And ‘Baby Tree’ had a good Attitude; one I need to follow… The poem ‘Easter, Matt. 19, and 27: 19-25 (My Version)’ is perhaps my Very favorite. Again, the Lord has given me special words and Phrases, but then, you’ll see.
I hope these poems will make you smile, reminisce, And most of all, touch your heart as the Lord has Touched mine in writing these poems.
The Lord bless you all.

About the Author
Beverly Yribe was born in
One thing about her poems and stories; when she begins them, she doesn’t know how they’ll end. “I don’t know what is going to happen to the characters until the poem, is almost finished. I have certain ideas, but God seems to change things around. When these poems are finished…I KNOW that God had a better idea!”
