Author bio

Hello! I'm Aunaleah Ellis and I love words. I like to journal, to read, and to create poetry. I write because words are beautiful. They are like a palate of ingredients that can be cooked up into a beautiful meal. 😊 The words together can express the heart of a human. Their experiences, their emotions, their hopes and imagination can all be understood if read or heard to those who are willing to hear their story.

I am a follower of the only Most High God. The God of Abraham, the God of Issac, and the God of Jacob. The Great I Am. I believe and honor His Holy Son He sent upon the earth who is the Messiah and is my Lord. He died for me, and the died for the sins of the whole world, according to the will of God. The Father is my joy, my portion, and my God forever. 💜💜
