My very good friend Dagmar, recommended a book to me, ‘Stairways to Heaven’ by Lorna Byrne. I am finding it a fascinating read and indeed rather quite soul-searching. After finishing one of the chapters, I was inspired to write this next poem. It is about overcoming adversity, having a reason inside you to live and embracing life with everything you’ve got. It’s your life, go get it!!
Miracle to Life
As the angel holds my soul
The brightest diamond, comes out of coal
Sparkling like stars, glistening forever
Floating in the air, flowing like a river
The staircase is calling, I see the light
The sun would not change, this darkest night
But somewhere from within, the heart beats stronger
Vibrating positive energy, sadness no longer
The tears turn to laughter, the mind is brave
I climb over rocks and come out of my cave
Such a beautiful scene, golden birds in flight
The freshest breeze, body relaxed not tight
To have a reason to live and try again
Is your miracle to life, free from pain
