Songs for the Last Sunrise: Poems and prayers from the edge of eternity
Price range: $3.99 through $14.99Poetic Prayers for the End of Night and the Coming of Light
Songs for the Last Sunrise is a journey through darkness toward the first glimmer of forever. These poems and prayers rise from the edge of exhaustion and the brink of hope, written by a man who has stood in the fire, walked through ash, and learned to listen for God in the quiet before the dawn.
In these pages, faith flickers and flares. Shadows speak. Lamps burn low but never go out. From the long night of suffering to the holy expectancy of Christ’s return, each piece leans toward the horizon-toward the moment when the sky splits, the trumpet sounds, and every weary watcher is finally met with light.
This is a book for those who have waited through the ache…
for the ones who still believe He’s coming…
for souls who refuse to close their eyes, even when the night feels endless.
Songs for the Last Sunrise is a companion for the midnight hour and an anthem for the morning that’s almost here. Continuing the journey begun in Tod Truettner’s first book, Creation to Christ, this work follows the soul from the edge of surrender to the threshold of glory. Tod writes with the grit of a builder and the heart of a watchman, reminding us that hope has a pulse even in the dark-and that heaven is closer than we think. -

Kwanzaa Songs for Everyone
Price range: $3.99 through $10.99Kwanzaa Songs for Everyone is a unique collection of music and poetry that celebrates the spirit of Kwanzaa. Set to familiar holiday tunes, these songs have all new lyrics and are expressed with a distinctive cultural flavor. The word “Kwanzaa” comes from the Swahili language and means “the first fruits of harvest” It is celebrated during the seven day period from December 26 to January 1. Kwanzaa is a unique cultural event that pays homage to the past, present, and future of African Americans. It has no religious connotations nor does it attempt to replace or substitute for Christmas, or any religious beliefs or observations. The reason why Kwanzaa came to be is simple: Until the creation of Kwanzaa by Dr. Maulana Ron Karenga in 1966, African Americans did not have a specific occasion to universally celebrate our culture. Kwanzaa incorporates African heritage into the festivities of the winter solstice and holiday season. After over forty years, practice, Kwanzaa is now celebrated by millions of people thorough out America, the African Diaspora, and all over the world. The seven principles of Kwanzaa promote family values, cultural enlightenment, and the growth of a cooperative community spirit, collective economic opportunities, community strength, family cohesiveness and progressive individual expression. The ultimate goal of Kwanzaa is that the Nguzo Saba, the Seven Principles, become a living part of the individual and community until they are practiced every day of the year.

These lucidly written verses reflect on, and expose, the secrets of achieving success in love, peace, and happiness.Positively uplifting and illuminating, Safaya’s poetic work is reminiscent of classical poetry, for it is deeply thought provoking about human nature and condition. Foreword Clarian Review wrote, “Reflections on Being Human works toward truth and self-actualization with many poems hinting at ultimate perfect unity …surprising imagery to uncommon and timeless effect.” Kirkus review remarked, “This earnest collection tackles serious questions…[c]onsiders the subject of love both abstractly and concretely.” An editor at iUniverse, A.

The Beacon
Price range: $3.99 through $9.99Life sometimes takes us to task.
So we seek our knowledge from the past,
Only to learn that life is an ever changing path
that rolls us in and out of the shadows.
Like a captain of your ship a sail,
Without a Beacon, you’ll surely fail
To find your way upon the seas of life,
And run aground in tears and strife.
That’s why the Beacon came to be,
To shine its light on you and me,
And help guide us safely to shore,
To be lost in life’s seas no more -

Knowing Horses by Heart: A Collection of Poems Written with Appreciation for the Horses in My World
Price range: $3.99 through $11.99For as long as Barbara Hutson could remember, she dreamed of having a horse farm and of surrounding herself daily with these magical, mystical, and majestic creatures. Suddenly, she found herself living her lifelong dream. In Knowing Horses by Heart, she talks about the joys and challenges of owning horses. Her poems consider the life lessons she has learned-such as the value of patience and respect-while considering how worthwhile owning horses has been for her.
Like most fantasies, the reality of our fondest wishes can be a bit more than we bargained for. Owning a horse farm is not all serene days gazing at horses playing in the field or peaceful rides into the sunsets. Horses are bigger than life. With that comes events that are also tremendous in size and impact, which lends richness and color to the fabric of our life story. Fully illustrated, Knowing Horses by Heart shares through poetry some of the knowledge Barbara has accumulated through her equine encounters.
Little Girl Giggles
The gift is sweeter than that very first kiss
Seeing those looks of sheer wonder and bliss
There is nothing quite like watching the eyes
Of a child as she squeals with excited cries
As the magic of real horses fills up the space
The look of pure amazement covers her face …

Reflections III: The Magic Beyond the Pain: The Journey, My Impact, Their Impact
Price range: $3.99 through $19.99This book reflects life-each and every one of us in our journeys as all of us inevitably end in the same place. It is our journeys, individually and those we share time and space with, along with the many souls on four legs that define the happiness inside. It is also imperative that we find ways to help the world we live in-for those many starfish that ended on the beach, and for each of those starfish that we can throw back in the water,-well, one more life we have saved. Inevitably, it is the lives we save that actually save us-aren’t they? They fill our souls with energy with that special feeling that we mean something that we actually are all connected but to live life with purpose-well that is ultimately the most fulfilling of all important feelings. To each of you I hope you fill those moments in the simplest of ways-giving back, and pay forward to become the power and energy that will save us all.
