The thug approached and attempted
to bully his way into my mind
fear is his bugbear
deliberately not being kind
A pro in the profession
getting into my head
chopping away at defenses
laughing as he fed
One final act to break free
and live to be old
I decided to give the thief a takeaway
that would sear into his soul
Letting go of fear
sending him fiery rays of love
surrounding myself with light
gifts from above
Now seeing him flee
disqualified from the heavenly realm
I recovered my mind
and took the helm
Encompassed in light
I am free
having gained strength to presevere
for all to see

Great poem Debbie! Was that your dog in the background? I thought I heard the pitter patter of paws on the floor Lol!
Thank you. Yes, she enjoys pitter patter of paws especially when I am recording. Thanks for reading. Have a wonderful day!
What is her name? And what kind of dog is she? 😊😁
Hi. Her name is Grace ( after my husband and other dog passed away – she came to live with me from a rescue shelter by the grace of God) – Grace is a blue heeler mix , great companion , and extremely spoiled . She is so much fun. Have a wonderful day!
