"Inside of Me"

inside of me
is a poem unleashed
years in the making
just kept for keeps
under wraps
34 years of living
scraping
and trying to make a change
with these words
of this pen
and the poet
lie within
going the path less traveled
less disturbed
less broken into stanzas
and I
am the puppet
letting these black
red
or blue words
on these white pages
speak for me
and what I stand for
or standing for
and before I fall
I give my all
for this gift
that was given to me
by the Creator
inside of me
until the end.........

Back to the drawing board.....

As I sit here writing this blog getting ready to celebrate 34 years on this earth, I realize that all my poetry, words, and life experiences have to change and become new. There have to be new experiences and new situations and struggles in order to see where your life will be standing after the time you spend.

I look up every night and see the brightest star in the sky and look up as if my mother (passed away two years now) is looking down on me to encourage me to keep it moving and enjoy the best and even the worst of life. Sometimes it brings tears to my eyes because I wish that she could enjoy it with me.......for now.

There are so many dreams and aspirations that I have in my head for the end of this year and next year that it's amazing and sometimes mysterious; amazing because I never thought that I could dream dreams this big; mysterious because my mind and God's vision seem to work in many mysterious ways. I thank Him for it, though, beause without Him I can't get the urge to get out and achieve my dreams!!

Until next blog,
