The Pleasure Is Ours

In Dedication
To those who have felt powerless in their journey

We are strong but together we are stronger

The finished poem...... for Emma (below the poem is her website...log on and help me support her in this incrediable journey!!! God bless her

The more I read this the more I enjoy it....yes definitely not the poem..that I initially wrote, not the one I found in my heart, not the one I felt i have lived, the one I have experienced, the sadness others feel when you encounter incredible life changing medically challenges. I have now found a new place for my writing. Looking at this journey, this opportunity to write, outside my comfort, outside the boundaries, I have written before. Something I've not been familiar with. This poem has given me a feeling serenity in which my writting has been impactful.. a way to help through my writing, a new way to feel....

So in that I find this poem, more and more truly empowering for me....it has given me something I wasn't expecting. Just as life,,,,,,,gives us journeys....our ability to see them however.....is our choice. I have found this journey truly wonderful....

I hope you enjoy

Hope You Enjoy!!

As each day passes I've tried to focus on life's blessings. One of my true blessings has been my illness; it has given me an opportunity to see life with new vision.......things that were always in front of me ...I see with new clarity. This journey, I truly have embraced and accepted it as life’s gift.

Embrace the incredible person you are, never forget the wonderful impact you bring to those you encounter....because you are important

Beyond the Trees

Beyond the trees

Is difficult to see
I ask myself

Was this day

A rewarding day

Did I do the world justice

Am I deserving

On this passing day

Will there ever be

A day

The vision comes so naturally

And

I won’t question

The person I am

As I see through the trees

Have I forgotten the true reason to be here

A suttle voice
Speaks to me
It comforts me

As I begin to see

Things so differently
The vision I see
just beyond

The trees

Becomes so clear

It was always there

Just couldn’t see it

With the fog before me

The questions within me

The doubt I had

Made it difficult for me to

To see

Just beyond the trees

Now clearly I see

No longer fear or question

What’s beyond the trees
It’s not the house I live in

Money or material things

The possessions I keep

It’s not what others see

Wish or judge me to be

Now

I walk so easily

My eyes open to see

What God has given me

The vision to see through the trees

On this passing day

I see me

Don’t fear what’s beyond the trees
Walk freely and openly
