Lifes Experience

As I’ve traveled down this “road of life”, I have matured and grown! I’ve seen so many wonders, that before, I’d never known! So many of lifes experiences, I can’t count the ones I’ve had! Most of them, were fairly good, but, I must admit, that some were bad! Seeking out, the truth and beauty, taking time to feel the sun! Savoring every moment, that I could, making sure to walk - not run! I strove for peace and justice. I found hope, in what could be. I sought the wonder and the joy, that set my spirit free! I was careful, making choices. I kept my goals in sight. I did not regret, did not look back! I just knew, when things were right! I treasure friends and family, of which I am a part. They helped, to make me who I am, I keep them always in my heart! Yes, life’s been quite a challenge and at times when hope seemed gone, I kept the faith, and knuckled down, and was able to go on! I thanked the good Lord, every day, and prayed He’d see me through, and whether or not I succeeded, it’s what I had to do! Experience is the catalyst, that will provide, if you believe, the strength, courage, and confidence, to sustain what you achieve! Ralph Taylor 11/5/18

A fine piece Ralph, telling well the course of life and how you get through it with good rhyme and flow.
