Watching wild horses race is awe-inspiring. This stimulates the heart's intense aspiring. However, in the Lord, I have complete faith. The toil of dread is as terrifying as a wraith. My virtue is stability; I'm the same each day. Steady heedless of what others opine or say. I am grateful to have received God's grace. This supports my firm trust in the fair face. As I assess my stance, I am assured it is right. God has given me a fresh objective and sight. Mice and rats have their picks, and I have mine. I embrace sticking to my beliefs. I stroll the line. Even if you don't place much value on me. Same as a river running, love never ends to be. I will uphold my faith until the cease of time. Praising love in a lyrical, sugar-coated rhyme Do not regard me as foolish or absurd. A sane claim wilts on the usage of a word. Deliverance from God boosts my trust. Sweep the ashes out; I'm staring at the dust.

Self confidence and stability are two virtues that elevate one to the top of the ladder ! You have both these qualities in plenty and God's grace. To be the same, irresspective of the vestiges of fate and public opinion is so admirable. It is the secret of your success as a poet and and a man. Keep it up and stand steady!
