My Thanksgiving Poem to YOU!

Dear Friend,

I wanted to first start off by saying,

"Thank you for being here. I am honored to be connected to YOU!"

Whether I had the chance to personally know and work with you, you are a loyal follower of my journey of transformation, or you are an important part of our growing community, I am grateful to have you in my world.

Holidays can bring up a lot of different emotions for many different people.

When I discovered this short poem called "Broken Dreams" several years ago, I realized it did not feel entirely complete.

So I went ahead and completed it myself.

This extended poem is for anyone that needs to be reminded that we are not alone. That we cannot forget how powerful we are and that we are meant to live a truly divine and full-filling life.

It's up to YOU and your level of TENACITY!

Enjoy!

With love to you,

Daniella

Broken Dreams

As children bring their broken toys
With tears for us to mend,
I brought my broken dreams to God,
Because He is my Friend

But then instead of leaving Him
In peace, to work alone,
I hung around and tried to help
With ways that were my own.

At last, I snatched them back and cried,
“How can you be so slow?”
“My child,” he said, “what could I do?
You never did let go.”

Dreams Anew (my extended version)

And so my dreams I did let go
Hoping He was right,
I said goodbye, held my faith
Watched them to the Light.

When doubt would come and pain drew close
I pushed those thoughts away.
“God” I said, “I know you’re here”
And I began to pray.

I went about my day with trust
Knowing He was near,
Despite what ever would arise
I began to not have fear.

I made a point to stop looking
For my dreams to heal,
As long as I believed they would
He would make them real.

Until one day when I awoke
I could not quite explain,
Gone was any doubt I had
Gone was all the pain.

I cried out to Him with joy,
“Mended you my dream!”
“My child,” He said, “it was you and I,
We did it as a team.”

“You let me do what I know how-
To tend and heal and love,
All I want for you ALL WAYS
Is to help you rise above.”

“I ask only in return,” He said
“To have an open mind,
With an open heart, is all you need
To know what is divine.”
