Poetry: Divine Destiny & Purpose

I will share a full post about my poem, Divine Destiny and Purpose this week. In the meantime, I would like to share a quick glimpse of the content. While I was in a planning session for this upcoming post, the backstory of this poem led to a grand revelation that took me 40 years to realize! I found Purpose from a poem (about Purpose) that God gave me decades ago. 🙌🏾

This is also to encourage those of you who are writers and are creative to value the gift and unique works God has graced you to produce. Poetry, especially, is a genre that trends here and there, but when it is God-given, the message is always relevant.

Queen Kirkwood Hatchett is a poet and writer who has self-published most of her written works, including A General Study of the Books of the Bible, Transitioning from Promise to Fulfillment, and her memoir, Survival of the Inner Man. Her most famous poem, Crack: The Drug from Hell, from her first publication, From the Heart: A Book of Poetry(©️1994 Hodale Press), opened many doors for her. She has received a host of plaques, awards, and certificates for her dedication to the community and Body of Christ, her writings, and her volunteer services. A survivor of childhood sexual and physical abuse, Queen is a creative artist who doesn’t separate her faith from her life’s work. When she is not writing, she enjoys time with family and friends or making something with her hands.
