Poems by Gerald Gerald Hatley

My life has been so blessed with joy and happiness thanks to my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I have wanted to give back something that might bring joy to others and leave a lasting testament to my family and friends. Not possessing exceptional talent, I struggled with how I could accomplish my desire. God came to my aid and provided me with the ability to put thoughts into poems, which many of my friends found with favor, and at their encouragement, I decided to put into this book.

The Bible says to love your neighbor as you would yourself. I can honestly state that I have tried to live by that throughout my existence on this earth. It is my hope that this book will create an appreciative and thankful feeling in your heart for some of your life's personal experiences.
