Candles In My Life

Oh life of mine… you are the path God has set me upon.

 

The paths have been crooked, winding, jagged, straight,

narrow and wide, flat and steep.

 

Some of the paths have been bright and some very dark.

 

Yet all along the way “He” has gifted me with many to light my way…

family members, many who are also friends, strangers who became friends,

and some souls who passed through this life of mine to guide a step or two,

then went on their way.

 

The last several years have been the beginning of a brand new life, a brand new path.

I have closed the gates to past issues, and so many new gates have opened along this

new path I have chosen.

 

My spirit has come alive on this path.

As in the past, new friends have come lighting the way

These friends are the Candles in my Life.

 

Thank you dear God, for these blessings.

TO BE AWARE OF THE PRESENCE OF GOD'S GUIDANCE IN OUR LIVES THROUGH THE MANY PEOPLE WE MEET ON OUR 'JOURNEY', IS REALLY A BLESSING. THANKS FOR SHARING A MOST INSPIRING WORK AND GOD BE WITH YOU NOW AND ALWAYS. LOVE, JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS

As one door closes another opens for you Ann.
And will keep opening to make your life and heart whole. You are so lucky to have the friends and experiences you do have. What is life but a series of those we know and those we will know? Hugs

Next Arrivals by Robin Ouzman Hislop

Robin Ouzman Hislop's poetry is certainly in dialogue with some of the key architects of the 'poetics of indeterminacy' – both the Modernist strands represented by the likes of Beckett and Stein, and the postmodernist strands represented, initially,
