Now that l am alot older,
Have l though really evouled
looking back over my shoulder
So many issues still unresolved
Used to think l was a puzzle solver
If l could only get a grip take hold
Perhaps now alot more bolder?
But still stuck l am in this mould
Then not really much of an evolver
If the the truth be known, be told
As l feel like this wouded soldier
A mystery still left unsolved?
Another little introspection aspects of me written early 2020
Awakened after years of dormancy.
Arrival of the time to be who I'm supposed to be.
A father, a husband, a leader, a king!
Sacrifice everything for the family, the queen.
With strength and bravery, i can do anything,
therefore the absence of fear.
Perpetuating that innate fire, to beat upon the chest
releasing a mighty roar.
Allowing renewed vitality, dignity, and spirituality.
So humility can humble, spawning understanding,
and wholeness.
Opening the door to knowledge, leading to an area
teaching and guidance.
Destroy and rebuild, modesty requires some defiance.
Applying the rules of nature, utilizing the laws
of science.
Visualizing, visions into existence, the creativity
of these hands.
Brunting the weight of all things within life's plan.
Problem solver, evolver, alone to stand.
The example of selflessness, now here I am.
All put together, the summated composites of a man.
Evolver-
Evolved he himself no any soul’s involvement!
I am an evolver.
The only thing that remains constant in life is change.
Therefore I evolve as change takes place.
When the sun comes out,
I put on my sandals.
When the rain pours in,
I wear my rain boots.
When the leaves begin to fall,
I wear my long sleeves shirts.
And when the snow finally comes,
There I go evolving.
I am an evolver in my dreams, my goals, my passions, and my priorities.
They constantly change day by day.
I once wanted to be a dancer,
But then it changed to being a doctor.
And now, I am soul searching.
Only God knows where I will end up.
But even through change, God has remained the same.
I am an evolver,
And he is my redeemer.
Inspired by John Legend's album Evolver
