My Spiritual Journey

Listen to poem:
as i seek the greater truths
along the journey of life
i learn how peace
and gratitude go hand in hand

my quest follows a trail of hills and valleys
surprises around each corner
with its share of gains and losses

i can say i knew true love
and for a while shared the path
of life, of wisdom and spirituality 
he passed away in my arms
giving his last breath
i handed him over to a universe
greater than the sum of its parts

and now alone again i must find a way
to pick up the pieces and go on without him
to follow the road where it may lead
gaining whatever precious trinkets
of spirituality that i may find

We are with you Miss Line on your journey. You will never be alone and always loved. Your words will speak of your spirit long after we are all gone. And people will still love you and your words because you have spoken to their hearts. Your love words have power. One hundred years from now this poem will still touch a heart and cause a person to stop and count blessings. That is your talent! How lucky we are.
