DETERMINATION
The fence line
The tree trunk
Even the horizons
Mattered to Milly
Each morning she rose
Five minutes to stand
Ten to the bathroom
Pain written on face
She had made it
The kitchen stood
As it did the day before
Standing firm, tall, strong
The goal within Milly’s heart
Just as the fence line
The tree trunk
The horizons
Determination rose from within
Milly would make it one more day.
