Strength

When my day is long and my soul so tired
I'm sill aware of how my metal is fired.

Flights of fantasy may cross my mind,
Though most only in a dream I find.

I much prefer being able to touch and feel
Sorrow and pleasure when they are real.

Let joys in life caress and enfold me.
And dark passages strangle and choke me.

My heart knows I'll come through
Whatever life gives me; for nothing is new.

(sigh) BRAVO!!! Yes, as long as you follow your loving heart and tread softly in His wings, you will always find the strength to carry on, guided by the joy and warmth of love! (smiles) We all love you so much, sweet friend! (kiss on cheek) You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Jo, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Nicely expressed!  Through bad things, out come the good one way or another.  Things come around and go around.
