Take My Hand Not My Life

Take My Hand Not My Life Life special moments of splendors Smoldering away like embers Silently yearning to be wanted But always undesired ~ Take my hand not my life ~ Tolerate me don’t persecute me I will work and support myself and family just so I won’t go back to the human abuse I exist in perpetual fear of detection and deportation. ~ Little innocent babe’s lurks behind For the wonderful feelings of being united in oneness Instead of random denial ~ S pirit T ends I n L eading L ives E nlighten X enagogue I mpowers S elfless T ruth Unity of our souls gives us courage and strength 9/3/2015 Xenagogue = a guide Free Verse and Acrostic

A GREAT message here, Eve. yes, if it was for Olive's contest, you need to shorten it up!! It would be a shame as Jan says.
