ONE SINGLE ROSE . . . POETRY BLOSSOMED FROM A ROSE CORE--COLLECTION OF POETRY COMING SUMMER 2008
I appreciate your support and hope that my expressions will be inspiring as well as entertaining. As a child I sang songs in my head and for others while my insides danced to the rhythm. As I matured I felt the need to release my songs onto paper. One Single Rose represents some of the songs I sing.
Check me out on the BlogTalkRadio segment below and featured poem at http://www.thesistahsministry.org/soulsistahscafe.htm
Don’t Let Anything or Anyone Steal Your Joy
Misery loves company, as most of us know.
Sadness can take you where it wants you to go.
Once welcomed inside, your body’s the host.
Preserving these emotions may stunt future growth.
Rise above the pain, release and be free.
You have many choices and alone hold the key.
Let your mind wander to places you prefer it to roam.
Settle into your mind state and make it your home.
For those who may push, poke and prod.
The people who cover the real as façade,
Those who try to take you where they want you to go,
Never let them mislead you or disturb your flow.
Don’t fall prey to phony acts or give in to ploys.
Don’t ever let anyone steal your faith or your joy.
Go where you want and be who you want to be.
It’s perfectly acceptable to agree to disagree.
Some people believe they know what’s best for you.
They’re entitled to their opinions and their points of view.
Learn to lead by example and make your own way.
Follow your own mind without being led astray.
Stand strong in your mindset unwilling to bend.
If you change for each person, your head will spin.
You’ll never know your true self if you run and you hide
From the positive energy that’s held up inside.
