Judy Jaisinghani Poet Rhyme

I Wish I Knew You When I Was Young

I wish I knew you when I was young

I wish  I knew you when I was young
The courage to take a chance  in my life unsung
Without wondering what would happen and when 
Leaping  ahead without first counting to ten

How  very different my life would be
The unwinding road with no limits to see
With the heavens up above and its guiding light 
The courage to lead the way in the darkest night

Courage – I wish i knew you when I was young
A chance to change this life unsung.
I wonder if perhaps it’s not too late
To master courage and alter my fate.

Beata Agustin August 18, 2024 at 6:19 AM Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
