This just came out of my mouth while I was holding a pen.
I have this day like many others in my youth to age.
I know not how and know not why, my soul it was encaged.

My mother passed a word of truth that wisdom was the way.
To walk the Earth the stronger man and keep my fears at bay.

To love my life and love myself, no need to be the best.
For nature knows and nature grows on those who ask for less.

I can plan and I can plot my own decisive way.
To leave behind the day I got so low I had to pray.

I understand sometimes my days will need a little lift.
I will remember this in deed my life is just a gift.

God bless you all. !!!!!
