Some of my inspirational poetry!

Love is not

Love is not a chain,
But a freedom.
Life is not a destination,
But a journey.
Faith is not a rule,
But a guide.
Hope is not a vessel,
But a way home.

A Mother's Blessing for Her Grown Children

May the wind always be soft and breezy,
May your travels bring you beauty,
May your heart stay steady,
And kind,
And faithful.
May the sun always warm your face,
May you always find a safe place,
May God give you His grace,
And love,
And blessing.
May you always find your way home.

Faith is...

Faith is honesty without judgement,
Faith is the innocence of childhood,
Faith is giving without expectation,
Faith is a steady heart for troubled youth,
Faith is guidance born of love and prayer,
Faith is belief in the wisdom of God's works.

Don't Dwell

Don't dwell on what makes you sad,
But on the things that make you glad.
Don't dwell on friends that done wrong,
But on the ones that stayed strong.
Don't dwell on troubles long gone,
But on the blessings still to come.

Freedom

Freedom is the one gift,
We never think on,
'Till it's gone.

Keep True:

Keep true to yourself,
Keep love in your spirit,
Keep strong in your faith,
Keep honesty in your words,
And hope in your pocket.

Sit a Spell

Sit a spell,
For there are tales yet to tell,
And journeys yet to travel.
Eat and drink and be merry,
For tomorrow's a trouble
None should carry.

I love these. I was going to say "I like .. best", but I like them all.

Maybe the mother's wish for her children best.. or the freedom one.
