Love Life

Love Life There was a time I wasn’t sure If I would ever love life. It always seemed I was only surviving. But I found my way through All the winding roads. By choosing to live authentically. To stand by truth when I was attacked. Words pelting me like cold sleet on my face. I was squinting just to see beyond the tears Where to go? Misunderstood, yet never able to understand The evil cast upon me. I had many friends, but still I was alone. But, not anymore. Now, when I hear the Loon call, the owl hoot, The hummingbird chirping… I think to myself: ‘Yes, I love life too!’ Heidi Sands
