'ownership'

A flicker of hope starting the flame of life again... Dangling on weathered ropes where a sudden rush of wind can send you to the ground clinging to the promise you never heard but somehow knew existed they always knew you would be stronger than this - they waited for you to step out and just believe to see your true potential with your own eyes and take ownership thereof -- By Wilma Neels ©050820121105

A pleasure to read your poetry today Wilma. I will try to come back later this week to read more. I have a spring cold and not up to reading for too long. Have a wonderful week. Love, Carol

Such empowering thoughts you have here, Missy! Yes, I believe "ownership" is a key step here :D Very descriptive write you have here, I especially liked the 2nd stanza, I think I can relate to that :D mwahugs!!
