The Second Time Around

All right, I’ll give it another try... I’ll give Faith a second chance which I discarded as extra baggage while finding my way to my dreams. Maybe it will be easier believing than being skeptical all the time, Trusting than doubting all the time, Smiling than scowling all the time; I don’t want to be angry no more, No more I want to be lonely. I have courted death often times I’ll give life another shot, I’ll face the rising sun with an open heart, For once I’ll stop to smell the flowers And savor gratefully each living moment in the grace of His providence. Alone, I have wandered the wilderness long enough, I am ready to come back home! ~"Faith" contest by Nayda Ivette Negron
