This thorny rosebush-like world
reminds of a shadow side
that’s never far away.
The quest for happiness and love
can be like the pursuit of a
mirage in an arid desert.
Overcome!
Hear your truth’s insistent pleas.
Trust your own intuitive heart.
Relish in the infinite
and unfold your soul’s sails.
Spread your angelic wings,
and soar high on nature’s wind.
Love will find you.

What a fantastic poem. Your words were absolutely wonderful. I loved the way you put this all together. showing someone how to spread their wings and go forward, you certainly did that. I also love the picture that goes with it. Very inspiring poem with beautiful words. I especially love the second verse.
