My wish for you  

Elizabeth Fletcher enjoyed her writing from an early age and was well on her way to being a fully fledged author before her premature death due to a road accident in 2008 when she was aged 26.

Her creative gifts show that she was blessed  with a sensitive understanding of how people feel in various circumstances of life whether it be in a hospital waiting room queue or the feelings of being an adopted child. The poems also  include a number that show us the way to finding a loving relationship with our Creator God that is the key to life. This delightful short selection of girlhood poems have been compiled in her memory by her parents. It is their wish that you, the reader, will enjoy these poems and will enter into the hope which shines brightly through them.

The following are extracts from four of Elizabeth's poems ...

If I'm not here tomorrow

I wish for you to know

Part of me will still be here

For my spirit will never go

Remember all the good times

And memories that we share

For love cannot be divided

It'll always remain here

Beautiful is the 

sound of rushing water

Over rock and 

down winding path,

Beautiful is the sound of children

Playing as they laugh

Fly blue butterfly

on broken wings

Dance nervously

upon the wind

Your beauty is battered, 

faded, bare

Something changed in me today

A feeling in my heart

That all my sins are in the past

I'm making a fresh start

So now I feel so joyful

To know He's close to me

This man has changed me greatly

God's love has set me free
