Papa (rough draft)

Desert drive, what a dread,
Spinning windmills up ahead,
A shaking voice bids our return,
We Ride in silence with concern

Despite it all He still tried,
If only time was on his side,
Then his blowing in your chest,
Would've stopped eternal's rest

Chorus:
But you will not be forgotten,
That smile that'd light up my eyes,
A heart so big so tender,
Hard to believe you left this life.

A bleak day dressed in black,
In my tears I look back,
hunting snakes with your flashlight,
Old western movies in the night.

Matching hair cuts in town,
I was a king, you were my crown,
Lake Isabella you gave me so,
smile from my papa across the boat

chorus

BYU Jerusalem

I am in the process of applying to BYU Jerusalem! I am really excited about it, I have always wanted to go have that experience. I found out last semester that I could attend up to six months after I graduate, so since I graduate in the next couple months, my next step is the Jerusalem Center! It is an expensive endeavor but I have no doubt that it will be worth the money. I am super stoked on it!!!!!!

Reading

I have been reading a lot for school lately...well always, but lately I've been grateful that I am literate. Though I wish my vocabulary and reading comprehension were at a greater place then they currently stand, it is truly a blessing to have the ability to read and learn new things.
