Gentle breeze awakens me

Bringing sweet thoughts as I drink my coffee,

Oncoming rain I smell in the distance,

Puts me in a surreal type of trance.

I so appreciate the blessings of today,

I’ve truley come a very long way.

Hard work and persistence have taken me here,

God, most of all has helped me conquer my fears.

So as I look at all things around me,

I’m thankful for finally being free!
