Written on September 28, 2025, this poem is about living – not just life – leading towards life everlasting. Faith that there is a tomorrow when all is said and done.
life’s not easy nor meant to be
living is about falling then getting off ones’ knees
learning and adapting to what one may find
when one discovers strength in heart and mind
in the garden of life, it’s where we’ll bloom
our roots established while in the womb
with care and nurturing, we fight off the weeds
blossom each year while casting seeds
climbing hills is part of being alive
arriving on top is how we thrive
yet there will be more hills on your way
life’s final summit is for what we pray
