My Soul is Ageless as well as Yours
Patience and Time: The family's building blocks.
Sometimes I wake up, and I be 6 years old,
believing in magic with a child's view of Christmas...
Sometimes I wake up and I'm 16, with the heart of a lion commanding strength and energy to change the world...
Sometimes, I wake up and I be 32, with accumulated wisdom, and have traveled the world ..... surmising that there's so much more to see and learn.
Sometimes, I wake up, and I'm 62, and in early retirement, coated with the experience of life and a need to write and share my offerings of tranquility.
Sometimes, I wake up, and I am 71, and I am writing a book, because the odds are against me, and I need to tell somebody who may care.
Now, I wake up at 80; lived through Jim Crow, sat on the back of the bus, transcended a segregated school system, served my country, been called a monkey which is just a snipped, denied access, been accosted unjustifiably on an unretrievable # of times, jailed erroneously, but still, I rise.
Now, I wake up to the realizations of my age, peaceful, calm, and tranquil at the seat of my soul, possessing such serenity, topped with love and memories that encompass all ages, while exhibiting a rich and precious existence under the sanctity of God.
The family, is the patchwork of a unique quilt stitched in time that bears a signature of "LIFE!" and love for each other under the auspice of God.
MERRY CHRISTMAS
LET THE CIRCLE BE UNBROKEN
