You Are a Special Vessel

I wrote this peom in 2003, and it was published in "Theatre of the Mind." I hope you receive some form of encouragement from this poem.


You are a special vessel from the creator's hand
You were specially made to be a member of earth's band
Your purpose is well defined
Your troubles are all behind
So take one step at a time
Keep your eyes on your goal
Don't shatter your soul
Remember your role
Hold your head high
Never take a sigh
Cast down negative criticism
Never harbor pessimism
Keep moving forward
Never look backwards
Rest if you must
Never make a fuss
For in due time
You will reach your destination without hesitation




It is my prayer that you will keep reaching for your goals. Keep in the race until you win. Problems do not last forever and whatever you are facing I pray that you will have the strength to place it in perspective and remind yourself that this too will past. May your today bring you peace and comfort and remember that the sun will shine again.

Be blessed
