Lead Poem by Dawn Jardine
Lead
Be strong
Be smart
Be ready
They told me
Work hard
Work more
Work lean
They told me
Go learn
Go work
Go home
They told me
Find peace
Find love
Find joy
I told me
Found love
Gained joy
Received peace
Built a house
Made a home
Had children
Made a family
Gave my all
Gained eternity

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
In each stanza, I face a different period in my life. The messages that we are all given. Elementary school, high school, post-graduation, independence, satisfaction, and then what was gained by following my heart, instead of another's.
