Ethel Louise Trehern 12/14/21-5/15/20
My grandma passed away Friday night at 7pm. She prayed for me & thanked God for my gift of writing in her final prayer. The following morning I was asked to write something for her service. This is what I wrote that day… 
Ethel Louise:
Those who knew her
called her Wese
A woman of great character
Missions had her heart
She witnessed to an alcoholic
& gave a minister his start
She was thirteen at the time
& from there her faith just grew
She taught classes at the same church
where she played piano too
She raised a family filled with the love
of her Father up above
She prayed to Him from here on Earth
so that others may know their worth
Cooking was her hobby
She made recipes everyone knew
Sweet rolls with pink icing
had people lined up before she was through
Invited to the National Pillsbury Cook-off
in Washington D.C.
Her lemon supreme cake was chosen
& a brand new kitchen she received
Sharp as a tack ’til her last breath
She was able bodied & giving
She loved doing things for others
That made her life worth living
Her family was her pride & joy
Her heavenly Father the Head of House
She resides in His kingdom now
making up the years lost with her spouse
A commendable woman
for ninety-eight & a half years
Memories will be joyous
though at this time we shed tears
She leaves behind a legacy
Some massive shoes to fill
I hope when she looks down
That pride is what she feels

Morose
I haven’t been feeling myself lately, & for that I am truly sorry! I haven’t been writing at all lately, not for quite some time. I decided to do something about that tonight. This poem just goes to show that no one is happy & positive all the time. No matter how hard we may try, we all get down. We all have bad days. We all go through slumps. Sometimes what we need is solidarity. To know that we are not alone. I am hoping that maybe someone can relate to what I wrote tonight. No matter what you may be feeling, I promise you there is someone out there who feels the same way! So today I decided to write. I knew what came out of my fingertips wouldn’t be joyful. But, writing has always been my escape. It is what makes me, me. I knew that the longer I put off writing the longer I’d feel dead inside. So I did the only thing I knew to do & let me mind escape from my head onto the page. ❤ This was the result:
Once a girl full of wonder
Now mobile, breathing corpse
Go to work, then come home
Nothing happens but remorse
Holidays are nonexistent
Feelings just the same
Eating to postpone the grave
In this body devoid of flame
Her life perceived as over
No writing & no thoughts
Ceasing to create her own
How can this cycle be stopped?
Swept into imaginary worlds
Through books & in her dreams
Scrolling through her phone
Wasting time staring at memes
What happened to the soul
That sparkled like a diamond
In the society, which is rough?
Her light diminished
Her world now dark
When will it be enough?
They say the spirit is eternal
That it goes beyond the grave
But, what happens when the spirit
Becomes the body’s slave?

Unworthy (religious)
As the heavy rain falls down
It seems my world may end
I inhale the water & drown
‘Cause it’s better than living with what I did
I wish this was holy water
To wash away my sins
But instead this rain makes mud
So thick that I need fins
I don’t pray for a life raft
To save my evil soul
Instead I slit my own neck
Creating gills through which to blow
My God, My Father, I do not deserve your grace
I completely understand if you look into my face
As I reach your kingdom’s gates
& you banish me to Hell
I will not be surprised
I won’t fight I won’t yell
My insides have turned toxic
My gut begins to rot
I won’t accept forgiveness
My stomach is a knot
Swelling from the inside
Soon to burst like a balloon
Spraying my wicked ways
Like confetti across the room
I should be quarantined
To protect others from my flesh
But I know that you forgive me
& my slate has been refreshed
There is no amount of gratitude
To thank you for your love
I will never be worthy
I should be disposed of ~Kimily Trehern
We are not worthy of God’s love, or the gift of His son. No matter what we do, or don’t do, that will never change. No matter how good we think we are, we will never be deserving. No matter how horrible of a person we consider ourselves, he loves us anyways. The free gift of eternal life is quite literally priceless. So when you feel like you could never be forgiven, think again. You have unlimited chances. Your soul is precious. Use your mistakes to learn from. Then let go. ❤
Self Published… FINALLY
I finally did it! I typed, formatted, & (self) published my first book. A collection of my poetry from the last 10-15 years or so. I am more proud of some works than others, however, it is all a part of who I am. You can now download an ebook version or a hardcopy by following the link below. I apologize for some of the formatting being off. It was my first time doing this & I was so excited to complete the project I probably didn’t focus on that as much as I should have… Please check it out, buy it, share it… Let’s get the word out! I’ll be starting on my next book soon. It will be focused on the power of positive thinking. ❤
