A journey just begun
Yet started long ago
A lifetime of travels
Bringing me here

Where our paths have crossed
As we knew they would
Unexpected yet prepared
To embrace its moment

Reality shifts
As quickly as the wind
For what seems real
Is of our own perception

What is surely clear
Is that the beauty we behold
Or the hurdles in our way
Are invisible to others

And who is to judge
And who is to care
What shape or form
Our reality requires

My journey has continued and I realize it is time to begin to write the sequel. The words have been written and they call for my attention.

No more hesitation
No more excuses
The light has changed
And it’s time to write

Been holding back
On starting the sequel
Waiting for more responses
To the beginning

But the words are written
Requiring my attention
Needing my arrangement
To play their music

And so we will revisit
That special time
When I found love
And my journey continued

From “Into My Life Unexpected…Learning To Love Again”

The beach at sunset
Colors of the day
Fading into darkness
Giving time to reflect

The waters calm
Soothing to the soul
As we retreat
To the loneliness of the evening

When I discarded
The past
And all its hurt
My journey could begin

And forgiveness was essential
For I finally understood that
I needn’t forgive them
But I had to forgive me
