Good Day by Tony WhitakerHeaven unfolds its fields
for new souls enter
irie man
gefult gut
buon giorno
voices in a void
you are nothing
you are everything
your reward for
living a life
full of failure
only asking
for another chance
09/04/2007 Author's Note: Being spiritual means learning to deal with anger and failure and gaining a sense of peace... forgiving those who don't.

Posted by Alison McKenzie on 09/04/07 at 04:27 PM The simplest grace comes in those moments of peace and forgiveness. Failure is just another part of the journey, the bittersweet morsel that allows us to put down the stones. You've stated it so beautifully here, Tony. |
