Today I noticed a flower so meek.
Through the heavy ground it did peek.
I thought of the grueling process it did take,
To show us its gleaming beauty, far from fake.
It pained me to think of all the people,
that find a flower less than a steeple,
And those who cut them to caress,
Ruining the tiny miracles brief but pleasant happiness.

- I was born in Los Angeles and grew up in Clovis California. I graduated from Buchanan High School in 1998 and served 5 years in the US army as a slavic (Russian and Serbian) linguist. I graduated from Fresno Pacific with a BA in Social Science in May 2006. I finished my teaching credential and am now working as a history teacher. Besides writing I love baseball and soccer. My first book The Sureshot was published in the summer of 2006. I finished the sequal to the Sureshot, but am waiting to get it published. I have a number of other projects that I'm working on including Christmas and Easter plays for my church.
