i am the sum total
  of my choices
   and my experiences.

You also have become
  a part of me
   and i a part of you.
    i do not stand alone
     but in my responsibility
      to God for
       who i am,
        what i am

And what i am doing
  with the breath of life
   He breathed in me;
    the air of living i draw in;
     the thoughts and actions i exhale
      and thus that
       which comes from God
        and goes through me is
         also the me that i send forth.

But whether for good or bad
  it may be to my credit or shame,
   but all in all
    the Glory belongs to God.

David; Beautiful free verse! "The glory belongs to God"! I love the way you put this one together. The wisdom, "I am the sum total of my choices", is profound.
Love, Sis

Summers haunting melody
that awakens
the butterflies,
calling them to join
the dance
in their silent song
of praise to God.

David,
WOW, you're writing Free Verse, did I say WOW? This is a beautiful expression of introspection and assigning the glory firmly where it belongs! WELL DONE Dennis :^)
