Being honored for my poem, My Powers.
Enclosed is an exert of the poem to wet your appetite for more!
My Powers
Believing in yourself is the first
Step to building strength that doesn’t rest.
Then, listening to others, not needing
To participate, being unjudgemental, hearing
What others need, interject, harboring
Your doubts and advice so as not harming.
Speak my mind, state my faith,
Being proud of my achievements whose…
Faith and belief are the core
Of my power to never bore, …
My scars, those that society frowns
Upon, are my badges of honor, survivals,
Will, and mind over matters
That seem trivial in light of my powers.
