A soul can wonder
From branch to branch
Never finding a home
It does battle
With all it meets
But its light
Has barely shown
Then one day
It heard a whisper
And it stopped
And began to quiver
Like the leaves who
Stand alone on trees
Waiting for fall to come
This soul then knew
His place belonged
Right where the
Heart sang a
Soft sweet song.

Another year has come and gone, quicker than before. I have made resolutions over the past and failed them like so many. This year has brought too many changes for me; some good, some bad.
What ever your plans for New Year’s Eve, be safe, have fun, and carry new hope into the next beginning.
I Am Who I Am
I am who I am
A grain of sand
A pebble on the beach
Mixed among those
Beside and within me
From the years of
Meeting and drifting on
Or sticking by my side
I am who I am
I have tried the trends
I have changed the outer
I have lost the weight and gained
I laughed at your jokes
I wept when you cried
I spoke the words
You wanted to hear
I am who I am
A woman with empathy
Filled with compassion
Seeing into your feelings
Love unstoppable
Beauty from within
Hope I cling to
Embedded with faith
I am who I am
I can be no other
I must accept that I am
Who God hath created
That the path which I walk
Will guide me where needed
I will finish what needs to be done
For I am who I am
