In Her Eyes

In her eyes
I'm what I want to be--
Not a frail creature of dust laden with sins,
But a saint seeking perfection.
In her eyes
I can be what I am--
Weak, worried, scared, selfish, mean, and nasty;
Yet I am good in her eyes--
Because she knows I want to be good,
And because she looks through eyes of love.
So I strive harder,
For I want to be
What she sees
In her eyes.

I Am Free

One by one the chains have fallen,
And I am free.
They have no power over me--
They who would shackle my spirit
And burden my body.
They shall play God no longer,
And only He
Shall pilot me.

This is my first blog. I thought I'd tell about all my books. I am excited because I have a new book out. It is called The Melting Pot and is available at Publish America. Other books of mine are:

Down Mare Creek Road
When Angels Cry (also available at Publish America)
Up Hurricane Road
My Little Children
Tales from the Coop
What About Brian
The Soup Bean War (a prequel to The Melting Pot)

All my books can be purchased from me. My e-mail is traeco@gmail.com. Or you can visit my web site and purchase them there: http://www.mykentuckybooks.com
