Golden Threads:

Steps in a journey become tools that empower

the one who will risk walking in a rain shower.

 

Reflecting on the quiet and moving ahead, life

become a silver lining laced in a gold thread.

 

Looking for release from the tar and feathers

and the ashes left from stormy weather.

 

Rest encompasses the spirit with the hope for

change and the strength to graciously  accept

 

the coming of age.
