Your Storms Don'T Define You

The most brutal of storms ,
have not the courage to uproot the kindest hearts , 
.
The most violent rains ,
could soak you ,
couldn't dampen the soul .
.
And what keeps me going
 is my burning desire ,
 to live , to love, to dream,
.
As it was all left burning bright into flames,
after the strongest of  winds died out.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
