In Her Relection |

I took a walk in the woods to enjoy a spring time day, and though I wasn't searching many answers came my way. I stopped by a babbling brook in my reflection what did I see? I saw someone proud and strong it's true, that person was me. I didn't see a reflection of one scared and all alone, nor was it the reflection of one whose heart had turned to stone. I saw a woman spreading her wings she was more than ready to try, she had finally drawn the strength to spread her wings and fly. On the wings of words our spirits fly, and our souls are free. |

Spred your wings and fly to the clouds Don't worry about the past or the pain They will forever be lost in the crowds As you take flight and grasp all your gain ========================================== Wonderful verse showing the commitment to yourself as you proudly where your colors and soar through the blue pages. |

D, Mark, thank you both for the extremely kind comments. Mark, I loved your verse. I wrote this just a few short months ago right before I left a bad marriage, and right after I realized it was "Time for me to fly" Again, thank you both. ~warm hugs and big smiles~ |

GS, I’m happy you’re on your feet and you’re ready to soar. Time heals all wounds, so go forward and release the past, ever more. Melton |
