BLESSED
I am a blessed Cancer Survivor
Awaking each morning with gratitude
I am blessed with faith, family & friends
Our prayers blessing each and everyone.

PRIDE OF WRITING
The pride of writing
stripped naked and shamed
judged by an executioner
exiled into another realm.
The pride of writing
lives silently with a smile
searching to be aprreciated
bought, sold and transformed.

AGAIN
Again she tried
Lost in her own lust
Whisked away by her own words
In silence she knew nothing would happen
Could happen, should happen
But her mind turned pages of an unwritten book
That she thinks spoke to her the truth. --LRO 8/03
