I am my mother’s face in the mirror,
As I speak her favorite quotes
To myself, that “This Too Shall Pass”.
I am dad’s voice echoing,
“Don’t Forget, Smell The Flowers”.
I am God’s Spirit,
Reflecting Him
To the world,
At this
Time.

Declaring today my Deserving Day
I am gifting myself abundant joys
Giving those worries and woes away
Declaring today my Deserving Day
Claiming bliss and joy mine to display
As negativity my heart deploys
Declaring today my Deserving Day
I am gifting myself abundant joys

What do you deserve? Name it. All of it. What are you ready to let go of? Name that too. Then name the most gentle gift for yourself. Name the brightest song your body’s ever held. Summon joy like you would a child; call it home. It wanders, yes. But it’s still yours. —Rachel McKibbens
#NaPoWriMo 2019-Day 7-Prompt: Today, we’d like to challenge you to write a poem of gifts and joy. What would you give yourself, if you could have anything? What would you give someone else?
My inner self asks me
“Do you know the meaning of life?”
“Do you know the why of it?”
I ponder each step I take
“Where am I going?”
“Is my life a symphony?”
“If so, who conducts?”
Then suddenly The Word speaks
And I know, do you know also?
