The Growing...

The Growing….
 
I will find somehow  
Strength in all I do and all
The cold places most dark
Where I hide and shake
Will become mere memories
That I shall ne’er forget
For I will grow from my tears
The nagging doubts where
Once I drowned and floundered
Afresh tomorrow shall in rebirth
Allow all possible futures
It is in my hands as it is in my thoughts
Forever in my power to make
This new me become
I will surrender not unto
The doubts that possess
Nor will I shun the hand offered
Opened true and honest
And as I wake this day
I will hear only peace surrounding
No longer missing the harmony  
That follows me closely
I will dance and I will spin
As I accept the tests not yet known
The paths that make me
The lessons which forge
I always will find  
The light that guides the way
As this day the world is mine.
