Live a little!
For my first post on my new site, I thought I’d ramble on a bit about living and life. Back too many years for me to mention exactly when, after a particularly bad time in my life, I wrote the following poem. I hope you’ll enjoy it since it’s…….
About Life
You’ll never break my spirit
You’ll never break my will
You can keep on trying
Until you get your fill.
You know you’ll never hurt me,
At least, not for long.
With all your many troubles
I can still be strong.
I refuse to buckle under
I refuse to be weighed down
While you come on like thunder
I’ll be acting like a clown
You know your many heartaches
Can no longer touch me
I will stop the fear inside
With all I’m meant to be
And live as I will and know
I will rise above you
I will win in the end
And Life, I’ll still love you!
Nancy, This is a beautiful poem. I’m sure you felt much better after getting this all out.
Susan, thank you so much for the kind words. And yes, it was a tough time, and I was just stubborn enough to fight back…with words. 😀
You go girl…. and you still do ! I’m proud of you. : D
thank you for sharing your strength
Lisa, my friend, thank you for visiting. I’m glad you liked the poem.
Love it!

Thanks Sandy, I sure appreciate the visit and the kind comment!
The verse of strength and positivity, Nancy, and you have lived your words well.
Thank you dear friend. It was a really low point in my life, after I suffered through the death of a man I loved. I began to wonder if I could get through it, and then I got mad! That’s when I wrote the poem…because life was kicking me in the teeth, and I wasn’t going to stand for it anymore.
Thank goodness you kicked it right back and went on with living, Nancy.
