Renewed

By Dawne Zacharias


                                 I wanted to sit and write this day
                                 of some feelings, I had this morn,
                                Of the many sisters, I've misjudged
                                            and left all forlorn,

                                  I know that there is greatness
                                          in every sister's life                             
                                 There are heroes in their duties
                                        as a mother and a wife.
                                         For each untold story, 
                                      faith will I put in its place                             

                               and turn the cheek when confronted
                                       and begin to set my pace

                                  A step at a time I will slowly go
                                         and offer in every way,
                                    My deepest love and shared
                                  respect to those I touch today
                                At times when I'm not feeling well or                                      

                                       my mood may take a turn                                     
                                        I will open my book and 
                                              read this poem                                             
                                          A lesson to relearn.

Your words display your aura and i think that’s what a poet is. It’s a art. I like it.
