The Essence of Life

She gazed into the dark, reminiscing her past

Revelling on the journey like a movie telecast

The road she had travelled was winding and long

Lifes lessons learnt there, binding and strong

The colourful sparks and the patches of grey 

Were the pleasures and pain that paved her way

The worry and fear that had once crossed her path 

Were like crosswords and puzzles figured 

on her own

Whenever the darkness did blind her vision

She stood true to her faith, believed there's a reason

Oft she find angels , to guide and console

When her world felt shattered and life was lorn

Their beautiful smiles and ever helping hands 

Were the memories she held forever close.

They had helped her to find purpose and peace 

And develop the courage to pursue her dreams

With pride in her heart she could now recall them

As the true essense of her life, thats each to his own!
