The woman I am today A brighter More balanced No wind can sway Both feet on the ground Roots taking shape Delving my existence Deep in the dark, earth bound I’m thankful Joyous and proud That I had the sense to stand still When winds of time promised ruin I channeled what’s deep inside My tree of life Went deep into the bark Seeking the light Bright beautiful calming Light, but dark I found not a spark But a feeling that feels warm - contented peace Moving and guiding gently

My very first attempt at this!
