Does Heaven Still Want Me?
Community blog post: “I wrote this poem while longing for the innocent life of childhood. I still remember clearly how, back then, I was simply a child who loved to play. I played pretend cooking, hida and seek, Barbie dolls, outdoor games, fishing, catching dragonflies, and sometimes, at night, I would catch fireflies. I still remember the fireflies my father caught and placed gently inside a plastic bag.'“
