Grown

Wondrous times we've merited
no longer feeling desolate
I'm feeling high-spirited
something I did acclimate
with conditions dreary
going to the doctor isolated
my nerves made me weary
now I'm quite elated
for I must be on my own feet standing
where independence is forced upon me
making me stronger and being
grown for all to see

Enjoyed this poem and the way you look at life. Regards // paul Login to Reply Angela Crabtree Date: 12/15/2020 4:51:00 PM Thank you, Paul. Yes, we are responsible for ourselves :)

Michelle Faulkner Date: 10/10/2020 12:20:00 PM Encouraging note of recovery and optimism here, I like the line 'when independence is forced upon me' - we all must stand on our own to grow!
