Heidi Sands Poet Free verse

Evolving Mysteriously

Healing takes time…
Not an instant, like a lightning bolt
It’s a combination of things
Changes, with practice
Boundaries with freedom
Learning lessons from old ways
Surviving through the days
There is no limit to growth
But, there are sometimes steps forward,
Then backward again
Life evolves in mysterious ways
As our being moves with it
We never know what is next
We can put things together,
Then something can break it again
Find peace in the chaos…
Find beauty in the storms…
Find yourself in the moment…
To fully live through it all…
The good, the bad, happy and sad
The ever changing weather of our lives

Quoth Theraven July 6, 2019 at 6:36 PM Heidi, I like this poem. "The good, the bad, happy and sad The ever changing weather of our lives", spoken true. It reminds me of another visionary.
