Shirley Hudson Poet Free verse

Listening To Your Heart

The pain wakes me, 
Late at night,
As the voices in my knee,
Breaks my heart.
As your heart speaks,
Always remember you are,
Stronger than you know,
Braver than you think,
You are a warrior and a survivor.
Yet, remember to always listen,
To those inner voices,
Which will guide you,
To your soul, and
The warmth of your heart.

Someone used your poem to put in a book! Our poem is copy right. That person was to ask you if he or she could put your poem inot a book. It does not matter, we are back to normal. Merry Christmas. all the best for the New Year. /Darlene/ Shirley Hudson December 24, 2024 at 11:30 PM Yes, my knee is giving me some problems, I'm so sorry it's taken me so long to get back to you. I was about to post a poem and then realized Someone used my poem in their book. I thought our poetry was copyrighted. I wrote you back or thought i did. Anyway Im back. Hugs to you my friend
