I have always enjoyed writing poems, here are some that I have written. 
 I use to feel like a dove flying beautifully through the sky, High in the sky not a care in the world, Then the clouds became dark and dreary, When they took Shane away from me, Now I am a vulture flying blindly through the rain, Not knowing where to go or what to do, So wait for me when my bird falls, When my life is done, When God wants me to come home, I will be as free as a real bird, Just like you Shane. Jennie Walker ~In Memory of My Brother Shane~  
I am the one who heard my mother's terrified screams I am the one who ran to the house I am the one who watched the twins I am the one who saw my dad cry for the first time I am the one who had to hold my sister I am the one who held my sobbing grandmother I am the one who could not sleep at night I am the one who told my mother it would be alright I am the one who thought their life was coming to an end I am the one whose brother was murdered He was the one who was always there for me He is the one who made me laugh He is the one who made me cry He is the one who had a shoulder to cry on He is the one who all my friends thought was cute He is the one who always stood up for me He is the one who lifted my spirits when I was down He is the one who always talked my mom out of grounding me He is the one I ran to with my problems He is the one who was murdered Jennie Walker ~In Memory of My Brother Shane~  I have angels watching over me, Flowing on the light breeze, They are my grandparents and my brother too, They watch me from skies so blue, I know that I will meet them again someday, They are there to guide my way, I can’t see them, but I know they’re there, They follow me everywhere, They surround me with love, From their Heavenly home above, Everytime I see a rainbow, They are at the other end I know, Until we meet again, Stay close my Heavenly friends. Jennie Walker in memory of Shane,Paw-Paw, Grannie & Pop-Pop  I am feeling bad I am really really mad It's just no fair I feel like ripping out all my hair I am not feeling really good And I don't think the jury understood Just how many hearts would be broken How many words left unspoken I hate the way it hurts my Mother I mean he killed my brother My brother can never walk And he can never talk But this man gets to walk free It's just not fair you see. Jennie Walker April 7, 2000 In memory of my brother and the injustice done to him.
 I hate seeing my mother cry The tears seep down from her eyes This is so hard on her I know how much it has to hurt I know it hurts me cause I lost my brother And you left two girls without a Dad Do you ever think about it, does it make you sad? You left three sisters without a brother And a grieving father and mother Grandparents left to cry Tears streaming down so many eyes He had Aunts, cousins, Uncles, he was a friend to all He helped anyone who happened to fall A poor grieving wife You have ruined so many lives Because of what you did that night Nothing in my life will ever be right Thanks for all the destruction you've caused You will answer to God when you are called Jennie Walker
