Finding hope and happiness in life poetry...

Oftentimes our existence falters the essence of happiness wavering confusion worrisome hearts surrender as hope and resignation tumble and fall Defeat is no pretender will conquer all conviction of our being matters answering the call believe with all your heart and soul life matters, one and all Steps reveal one’s heart in measure inspired, we go determined though footfalls wander persevere and find your way touching hearts forever stay Every step as mountains climbing accomplished is the saviour rest in peace your gift divine feel the essence bathing soul to treasure in its grace and beauty Breathe in deeply long exhale as your peace of mind affirms your journey, bear your soul for this, your gift and celebration hold it close never let go Let your faith be reassurance smile and elevate your story long embrace your life, your purpose forever in your heart you'll know life is being life is treasure live it long and full
