My Thoughts: It truly amazed me how much life can totally changed within seconds. Example is: Eric quitting (if he’s reading this, do not get mad). I learned so much from him. True, he did give me extra stressed, which I didn’t need. He didn’t be a true partner to me. BUT, he did taught me how to be a team leader, a good teacher, and be more patience. Thank you for changing my life and Pretty Petty Poetry. You are my friend, my Brother in our Religion, and my little brother from another mother.

My Spiritual Thoughts: In Texas, there was a Church building caught on fire for unknown reason. Their members and others chipped in to prayed and donated. This story touched me because no matter what Religion you are, God loves us all.

Poem of the Month:

I Will Protect You (I Will)

By-Amanda D. Petty

She harmed you, used you, played you, and even lied to you.

Your light was dim and the moon was your sun.

Your eyes were broken and your heart had tears.

You lost hope, trust, dreams.

Everything has changed.

You’re protecting yourself, and I was doing the same thing. I know you’re scared to say but I know you. You don’t have to be tough or strong with me. I will protect you. Sweetie, I’m not going anywhere. I lost you once; if I lose you now, there won’t be life in this body. I would go into hell and my heart will be a black hole. I wouldn’t say this if I didn’t mean it. I will comfort you. I will ask The Lord for the right words to make you smile. I will ask Him for the tolerance and thoughtfulness to help you. I will ask God to love you as much as I love you.

There are so many words I can’t find to tell you how much you mean to me. It’s like; Heavenly Father has given me a sacred gift to have and to hold. I can’t imagine living without you. You fill my world with joy, true happiness, real love, and deep faith that I didn’t realize. My love, I will heal your scars from the others. I will be your personal inspiration. I will make you laugh when everything seem to be depress. I will understand you so well that you’ll think I’m in you. I will treat you good for the rest of your human life. I know we were more than husband and wife in heaven. I will be your cure for your unseen scars. I will be your key for your unanswered questions. I will be your light in the darkest hours. I will be your power when you feel weak. I will compliment you. When you’re feeling blue, call me and I will come running to give you a kiss.

I will comfort you.

I won’t hurt you.

I will be your sunshine.

I will mend your heart.

I will be your hope, trust, dreams.

Lyrics of the Month: Poetry has a plethora of styles, and our ultimate favorite is lyrics.

In December of 2016, a gentleman contacts me, promoting his music, through Facebook. This never happened before. He sent me his link and that stuff. I come to find out that I love his music. He invited me to a private concert. I told him about my situation. Get this, he was, WILLING, to come and give a private concert at my house. I invited some of my very close friends to join me. So, he came… His name is Garth Smith. He just plays the piano. If you want uplifting, good, spiritual music, I highly recommend him. He is LDS or Mormon. I asked him if I could promote his music on the site, and he says, sure. He has three CDs out. I have them, and I just love the feel of them. When he was playing in December, I could feel Heavenly Father’s love. That feel is also in these heavenly, reverently, peaceful CDs. For me, that is huge to me; believe me, you WILL like him.

You have to listen to the lyrics. This song has a double meaning to me. I don’t want to tell the reasons because they are very sacred. There’s a powerful verse that it actually made me cried. Tell everybody about this humble, nice, good man. Garth, thank you for contacting me. I’m grateful to have a great friend.

Want help: If you want to help with “Pretty Petty Poetry”, you can! We are looking for some volunteers to help with the desktop wallpapers and getting us clients. We can’t do everything by ourselves anymore, too stressful.

For New Comers: This is AMANDA’S idea to do this business. Everything you see is her alone with the help from God. This is a part of “Pretty Petty Poetry”. She has been studying English with the help from a professor, Nancy Lowe, from Weber State University, Utah, USA since October of 2011.
