Welcome, Child

 

Every day we greet the world,

The new day,

With all of our baggage, insecurities and fear.

And all of our hope.

 

We lift our faces to the sun,

And say to the world,

" Love me, accept me, I am here!"

 

And the universe answers, "Welcome child,

Let me lighten your load

You are the teacher every child should have. I just found you by reading one of my favorite authors on Authors Den, Karla Dorman, the Stormspinner. I saw your review of one of her works and thought I would check out your page. I read the prologue of your book, "Show and Tell" and ordered it. Looking forward to getting it, and also reading more of your work on the Den.

Nicely done, Karen, sometimes it is just that simple. Our higher power is always there to watch over us.
Much peace, love, and light,

Yes Karen all too often our views and judgements, even our hope is clouded by the shadows of despondency but if we wait and keep the faith the sun will break through and we will be answered as this lovely poem of spirituality suggests. Sorry for the run on sentence.
