Valerie, this is an amazingly great poem. Spiritually, it's perfect. God's truth and brilliance flows through it in unbelievable abundance!

A sad, yet beautiful lamentation. You are moving as you shoud down that rugged track. Your poetry is deeply moving and heartfelt
With a strong heart we can find our own way along the rugged road of life, with our memories we can lighten our load by keep moving forward to find a new dawn to embrace! Beautiful write!

Wow! Very nice! Before even commenting I added straight to my list of favorites! Will print out a copy of this wonderfully inspiring poem for my daughter. Will be a nice reminder for her when she feels life is becoming all too much. Thank you for writing and sharing this beautifully written poem!
A wonderful poem, the path can be found again, it just sometimes feels like we can never find our way back. Then all of a sudden the path finds us.
A heart touching poem Valerie, where the heart is shattered and broken into pieces but the mind still tries to find a new path to move forward. very inspiring one
