The I Am Within
Though wise be the voice
of each passing season
I am becoming the wisdom
of mine and others reason
While connections with genius
I seldom barter
Understanding life’s courses
makes me feel smarter
Possibilities garnered
where creativity assembles
I am attracted with passion
where love intermingles
Kindness finds wealth
wherein happiness dwells
Courage is limitless
with compassion my living well
Beauty is divided equally
among all entities living
I am prayerfully of those
that, for the most, is forgiving
Confidence often lacking
though faith within churns
I am an accumulation
of many lessons learned
Serenity often escapes
when heartache is near
so I am always grateful
for my Fathers listening ear
Connections I’ve made
with His love unconditional
for me is pure joy
and not just traditional
