I pack up all my things At last I remove my ring No longer will I be bound To walk on sacred ground I am out on my own Like a leaf from the tree blown I am free to roam Away from this home On the wiind my spirit soars Nothing but open doors Appear along the way Nearby a butterfly plays I feel light as the warm air After accepting your dare I meet your puzzled gaze As we continue to the next phase In time truth will be revealed And at last my heart will be healed I am ready come what may Looking ahead to another day When I will wear a smile Although maybe not for a while Strength will be shown A new love will be known ---------------------------------------------------- Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |

Wow! Straight from your heart my friend, beautifully expressed. Take care! God grant me the serenity to accept the people I cannot change, the courage to change the one I can, and the wisdom to know it's me. ~Unknown |
