Poem

my life has not turned out as imagined
the biggest accomplishment has been writing
though we have had a long struggle
been challenged by death and sorrow
                the chant of the dead and forgotten
all the chains of the past . . . 
for me the most important thing is tranquility
want to be as a tree rooted deep into the earth
               or as water pouring into a vase
or sliding over smooth river rocks . . . 
if I could have changed my past-   would have
but it was all written in the book of time
and what is written will be
         so this girl writes the shades of her emotions
cannot afford to travel so I journey in imagination
and have gone to amazing places written on white
my philosophy on life-   is to never become what I 
             hate no matter what is done
by taking up the hurt in my soul and using that emotion
    to create poetry . . . .
is there a higher power called God?
oh, not certain that angels walk among us
but to think that my beloved are not waiting 
          in a nirvana is unfathomable
so I must believe the fairy tale . . . 
oh embrace this vers libre from my pen
for this poetry thing is not just an idle past time
but art that I create-  but even more important is
that when taking up a pen
      I am a different girl . . .
