Growing in Life


Doodling on a flimsy pad

reflecting upon decisions made

honesty with myself

a high price has been paid


Making the decision

to embrace kindness and joy

letting go of anger and resentment

using life as a discarded toy


Expressing gratitude

meditating in nature

seeing a bird in a nest

admiring their labor


Helping with a need

listening to an issue

having sympathy for someone

handing them a tissue


Giving faith a fighting chance

dancing in the rain

standing beside the ocean

there is so much to gain


Seeing a silver lining

willing to take a chance

there is joy in my spirit

as I dance
