Deep within my soul a passion waits for release Buried under the burden of trials walled behind the pain of broken relationships Conscious and unconscious limitations I have placed on myself. Ah… but now a stirring a spark that longs to be kindled a desire that has stoked the fire in my soul Mere mediocrity will no longer satisfy the passion consumes every fiber true realization that I was created for more immeasurably more than my mind can fathom A new path revealed I set my feet, hands, heart and soul on an unmarked journey listening intently to the voice of my Creator |

Now this is the kind of positive poetry that women need to read, as there is definitely a better place than alone. Nice work, and welcome to Passions. Example is not the main thing in influencing others, it is the only thing. |

A new path revealed I set my feet, hands, heart and soul on an unmarked journey listening intently to the voice of my Creator **************** And there lies the one answer that fits so many questions. A wonderful contribution to these forums and a pure joy to read. One of the most challenging (at least for me LOL ) things about free verse is the line breaks, but yours are right on an read perfectly. They give that pause or emphasis in just the right places and that makes for good poetry. Welcome to Passions and a cudos to Larry for bringing you to these blue pages. |
