SOLITUDE

SOLITUDE

By Sharon Prater-Pope

In solitude

I am smart

I am inventive

I am brave

I am confident

I am free spirited

I am not clumsy

I am not anxious

I believe in my creativity

I am a beautiful soul

I am okay with my body

I am spiritual

I am sensual

I am a dancer

I am joyful

I am strong

I am fragile

I am a dreamer

I am one with nature

I am a child of God

I can do anything

I can be anything

I am myself.

I am fearless!

But then I’m never

Really alone... am I?

MARRIED STRANGERS

MARRIED STRANGERS

By Sharon Prater-Pope

Day by week by year

One by one by one

Negative words, actions,

Emotional pounds,

Pile up

Until all that’s left

Are two strangers

Sharing a house.

Only when one is taken

Does the other realize

What has been lost…

Walls, a Poetic Attempt

WALLS
by Sharon P. Pope

Day by week by year
One by one by one
Words actions pounds
Build walls that hold in
Emotions, anger, pain, resentment,
Disappointments, pride, and fear,
While holding out
Love, life, joy, happiness, inner peace,
And the people we love the most.
        

Happy Easter!

Wishing you all a happy Easter with bunnies, eggs, family, and friends, but let's not forget the real reason for the Easter celebration, the resurrection of Christ and what He did for us on the cross. :)

Enjoy the day!
