In Life

My path in life has been tangled from my beginnings- But instead of breaking me- it has made me strong A strength has grown within that is unfathomable Oh yes, at times I haven fallen into dark pits No life is perfect- there are many problems But kindness has dripped from my lips For kindness is the key to happiness And each day- I whisper thanks With gratitude to the Lord_ _____________________ April 10, 2020 Poetry/Verse/In Life Copyright Protected, ID 20-1242-871-03 All Rights Reserved, 2020, Constance La France Submitted to Strand Pick 8 sponsor, Brian Strand Second Place
