Let the Rain Fall


Book Description

Let The Rain Fall is a collection of poems and prose by Lauren Cohen that are a cathartic expression of the struggles occurring within modern society and humanity's existential dilemmas. Her words tell stories often difficult to articulate; stories of pain and grief, healing and growth, oppression and liberation, and light and love. These stories are portrayed through the lens of Lauren's perceptions of her own struggles and those of her friends, people in the community, and the world as a whole. Lauren creates poetic tension that invites the reader to immerse themselves in these universal existential challenges. Despite the dark clouds and menacing storms as the rain falls, eventually the sun breaks through, and with light, we find our way home to a place of healing and growth.

Your Own Song to Sing (Volume 2)


Book Description

Writing has taken over my life.. in a good way. My thoughts continually are geared towards my next song. Sometimes I get a few lines in my head when I am driving and I have to pull over the car and write them down! No matter where I am, I get the urge to write. I could be talking to a neighbor, or be in the middle of mass at church and a word or phrase will pop into my head and whoa! -a new song is born! More than anything I love, love, love, the peace of mind songwriting allows me to have. Most of my lyrics take me 15 to 30 minutes to write. There was a time when I was writing 6-8 lyrics in a day. Sometimes I would sit there and stare at my pencil asking why did you stop? I swear at times the pencil kept moving like I wasnt even thinking of what to write. This is my first edition. I hope to continue with future editions as I am still writing new songs everyday. Someday I hope to put my lyrics to my own music and I recently started taking piano lessons. Hey, we all know life is a learning process; a learning curve, we need to experience the turns with the ride! I wish you all success with this book and look forward to seeing some of you with me when it comes to award times!




PRAYERS For The Hurting, The Hopeful and The Praiseful


Book Description

The purpose of this book of prayers is to lift up the hurting, the hopeful and the praiseful, to draw each of us closer to the Lord of all compassion, forgiveness, mercy and love. While each prayer reflects, to some degree, the author's knowledge and experience of the Lord, the meaning, depth and flow of each prayer came from the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. We are all hurting, hopeful and praiseful children of the King. We are all of these things, in varying degrees, during the differing seasons and circumstances of our lives. Who among us, whether new or mature in the Lord, can say that we do not hurt at times, that our hope does not vary in intensity as the war rages between the flesh and the spirit, that our praise does not flow as joyful shouts, then as quiet whispers. No matter the season, the circumstances, or the distance we have traveled in our Christian walk, no hurt can overwhelm us, the flame of hope can never be extinguished, and praise will ever be on our lips.
