Kevia Carter Poem by Ben Gieske

Meet a medium of her poems
With love and hope for her lofty throne.
She has her dreams and inspirations
Including you in her invitations

To choose “the road less taken”,
To know the kind of person she is.
Truth and consequence are not to be lightly taken.
You will come to know how real she is.

Join with her, her hopes and dreams,
Helping you “wear your smile everyday”.
To be sure she will be leading the way.
Like a clown bring you a rainbow day.

And if your life has such pain
“Why stay in a house that’s not a home? ”.
“Strike a match and watch the flames eat away the pain.”
A couple of quotations from her poems.

What is it, the vital force of Kevia
Whose love extends beyond just trivia?
Offers her soul, never only a part,
“That what makes” her “hold her heart”.

This is the Kevia of her poems.
Who better than she to describe herself?
For truth is lived and not just a lonely word.
Now you know her name, how real she is.

With a pen she writes her life.
Her eyes still hold within the truth upon her lips;
Which never do unfold a lie.
Acceptance and forgiveness pave a true relationship.

If she could she would take away all your pain;
Erase all your grief away,
Not afraid to feel the pain
Helping you find the sun after the rain.
