Thank you
For the fire
For the fire
ignited deep within
awaking and urging me to dream bigger
to do better
to want more
For the passion
once dormant but now burning brightly
making me feel young
and beautiful
and vibrant
For the clarity
gained from a lesson I needed to learn
reminding me of who I am
what I believe
where I belong
For the act
exposing your truest of colors
making my decision easy
washing my hands
closing the door

This to me is one of the best things I have read. How do I explain why? It evoked something within me! Too deep to go into now, but I thank you for sharing this with me, it really reached me deep down. #mg
ReplyDeleteVery thought provoking. Thanks for sharing #mg
ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind words. Poetry is new endeavor for me, one that I have never been particularly good at, but which has emerged during this A to Z Blogging Challenge. I started out writing a full blown post, but before I knew it, the post had become a crazy, untamable beast. The only solution I could come up with was to convert it, or the feelings I wished to convey, into a reasonably size poem. I appreciate you stopping by and taking the time to comment.
