As I reflect for a moment to consider my content,
My soul is astonished to decipher a life well spent
I hope it's not my mood that will soon pass away;
But rather, a truth that I will accept today
You see, I have pouted for most of my existence
Despite a determination that kept me going the distance..
Wealth has escaped me, and beauty has crept away
Struggle has been my partner as I've ventured everyday
Being my worst enemy is an emotion I have mastered
While defeats overshadow my accomplishments ever after
And, I've often declared that should I ever pass away,
It should be memorialized as being my happiest day
So, I stand here bewildered by the notion I am teasing
I'm blindsided thinking that life might have been pleasing
I have slipped on my journey, but never did I fall-
Maybe the universe has blessed my life path after-all
And if so, how could my thinking have been so corrupted,
And why is my mindset being so sweetly interrupted?
Whatever the reason and for whatever the measure
I welcome the enlightenment and delight in the pleasure
Rich flow of thought, well articulated and nicely penned with conviction. Beautiful motivational poem, great work. Thanks for sharing Kim.
