Winds Whisper As I Walk

I took a long walk yesterday my heart was so over joyed there are not words to express the feeling I had for I can recall when I could not hardly put one foot before the other for the weight on my body.It was such a beautiful day.I am so very thankful for God leting me have this surgery it saved my life.I want to share a poem with you just to be able to walk I am so very greatful. Thank You for leting me share this part of me with you..........Love Tina Winds Whisper As I Walk The sunshine's bright as I walk looking at the wonders the beauty all around me. The winds reason caress my face. The sway of the tree's the blooming of the flowers. Whispering winds understands my need to escape, to disconnect, reassociate to be at peace as I slowly walk. I'll pour out my passion in my mind as the precious poetic words come fourth. Clinging to old memories of such a very larger body never to forget. Never to judge others, For I was judged. Now unshackled from most of the pain, old wounds silently I suffered but now free. As the winds whispers you now carry a badge of courage. As I slowly mend. Only to be accepted for who I am and not for what I look like. How do I rise above, to break free from my fears? I must break free from the hurt, despair, to forgive, to love, learn to care again. As I hold steady on my path walking slowly my mind raceing faith is my companion and hope is my guide. Such a whirlwind of words in my heart. Only a single creation of words I deem worthy.Walking along I see borders of flowers blooming rows and rows. The sun now at my back splashes of yellow,purple,reds the sun makes the marigolds reach skyward. A potent perfume fills the air as I smile. I capture the essence on brilliant display.For a moment I close my eyes feeling the gental breeze.Honored I am blessed overwhelmed by my senses I open my eyes to see spring dance before my eyes.As it slowly comes to mind that just a few years ago I could not walk and behold the beauty that is before me. For today I am thankful for being able to take a walk and cherish what some take for granted. I pursue with caution this path, On a carousel of life now accepting me for who I am. As the winds whisper as I walk. Written By: Tina Carter South Carolina
