A Quick Poem to Prove I'm Still Alive

Sorry I've been absent recently! So much going on... but oh well. Now I'm going to do what was mentioned in the title! Share with all of you random bloggers a quick poem to prove that I'm still alive. So, here goes.


I Am Love

Through my veins this love will flow
Sustaining my life, I'm letting go
There is no pain or toil here
No need for agony or shedding blood-tear
So much more than the eye can see
So much more than the hand can touch
I'm falling into this world unknown
Remolding this heart that once was stone
So let me be and walk with me
You who aren't afraid of He
Who marked me on that day long gone
When I was young, an innocent fawn
But now I'm old enough to talk
To run, to climb, to fall and walk
There will be challenges up ahead
What difference is that to this road I tread?
A life without love is no life at all
I'll remember this, lest I should fall
Love shall flow within these veins
Taking care of all my pains
I am Love and Love is me
Whatever else did I imagine I could be?

A Canadian Joins the Blog

Hello there my fellow readers, writers, and random blog stalkers! My name is Jennica Travilla (first name is real, last name is not), and I'm going to give you a brief little spiel about myself before I get down to some writing.
I'm Jen, my favorite colour is green, I spell 'colour' like I do because I'm Canadian, I love hockey, I'm a Christian, I'm secretly a Jedi, and I'm completely awesome. I'm the type of person who will carry a notebook at all times, just incase some inspiration for poetry or stories pop into my head. I absolutely love reading and writing. Ever since I was a toddler, I loved books and constantly was reading them or having someone read them to me. And nowadays, you rarely find me without a book! Some of my favorite series are Warriors by Erin Hunter, The Chronicles of Narnia by C. S. Lewis, Leviathan by Scott Westerfeld, Nancy Drew by Carolyn Keene, Harry Potter by J. K. Rowling, and Hardy Boys by Franklin W. Dixon.
Another passion in my life is music. I absolutely could not live without my music. Something God's recently given me is a talent for dancing. I dance to basically everything now! Some of my favorite bands/singers are tobyMac, Skillet, Group 1 Crew, The Beatles, Lecrae, Disciple, Hawk Nelson, and Flyleaf. And that's only some of them!
If you were going to stereotype me... I'd be in the crazy/insane/lunatic section. Why? Because I simply am insane, my dears. =P Just ask Abbey. She will not lie to you about such things. I have an Imaginary Friend named Yumi who just might pop up later, to warn you all ahead of time. I have an insane obsession with fictional characters, whacking llamas with my Frying Pan of Doom, and taking over governments. They're bloody well llama-infested, if you ask me. *shakes head*
So. Here I will be writing exerpts from various stories I've written, and maybe, if Jack will allow it, some of my poetry. My book is still in the process of being outlined and planned, so you won't see much of that yet, but I am still working on it!

May the Force be with you.
Jen <3
