Hello All! Four weeks have passed since I last posted. I have been so bogged down with many things to think about, and my next move in this life. However, I still find time to write poetry when I am inspired. Two days ago, I awoke and I realized what I must do. I need to enjoy the now more often and let some things happen as they do, for I cannot be the witness to everything, nor the doer of every action. I suggest that some of you take up this philosophy at least in part if you are stressed. You must realize that God’s plan is for you to enjoy the life that He set out for you, and not worry so much about what is coming as your are in His arms forever. Here is my inspired poem:
I am good enough
finally to make it through the rough
I take what I need
and I leave what I don’t
Past transgressions had pulled me apart
and that was only the start
For not only did others do it
but so was I included
For now, I see from atop the mountain of grace
As only I know how to destroy this haste
For only I can see what is to be seen
And only I can perceive my own fear
Fear is not necessary except in times of danger
and only then can it make me a stranger
to the world I know and embrace
as only it can lace
my soul with distrust and waste
the precious time I have to taste
So Bon Voyage to all that is
As I welcome myself to the world
that is here
a fated reel before my eyes
that I crank at my speed and desire
For only, in my own life, can I inquire
what should I do and what is becoming of me
Life is full of much beauty
and it would be a shame to not enjoy
the here and now
and worry about the later
For only the later can come
when life has moved one moment closer to done
I shall not fear what is next
nor shall I make myself a mess
I cannot see too far ahead,
so I can only walk forward instead
Grasping, Observing, and Deserving
through only the will of Him!
