Standing At a Crossroads

Standing at the crossroads before, My life is in misery to the very core, Not knowing what kind of path I choose, To make the changes I like the most. Undecided where my life leads me, I just go on walking to the unknown way, Obstacles may happen as I move forward, But I overcome all because I am not a coward. Many times I felt the pain in my heart, As I did my goals from the very start, But miracles happens if you believed, Pains and disappointments finally healed. I prayed hard to our Almighty Creator, To give me strength to do in His honor, So that whatever cross may put on my shoulders, I did it successfully and share my blessings to others. Maria Paz Samelo November 1, 2012 2nd Place Winner For Gail's "Standing At A Crossroads" contest 1st Place Winner For Dr. Ram's "Best 2012 Poem" Contest

Oh, I've almost missed this wonderful write of yours my dear friend, Mary. I love this poem especially the picture portrayed on the third and fourth stanza. I've also written one on this theme 2 days ago but I can't post yet because I'm quite skeptical on its form. By the way, wish you the best of luck and win in the contest! More power always! love/hugs:) Norie
