On Recovering
Having been smitten
with cancer
and with spinal troubles
I take my recovery
quite
seriously
I feel the power of the "chi"
in the depths of my being
No longer do I
despair
I march into
the future with
my head held high
Hope at my right hand
persistence at my left hand
Surely - "the best is yet to come"
I am reaching out with verse
to poetrysoup readers
Hoping all of you are healthy and
happy
Life can throw one
some curveballs
but in the end
It is all worthwhile
As rain comes down
on my city tonight
I pick up a pen and
write this ode
in the hope it will encourage readers
to take joy when they can
