Extra baggage

A heart filled with enough love there is no space for hate

A life filled with enough hope there is no regret

An intellect that intuitively knows what to garner and aspire

An understanding that can decipher the boundaries of desire

 

A knowledge which does not make me conceited or hollow

An attitude of humility and gratitude with wisdom to follow

A laughter so infectious it spreads sunshine all around

An empathetic resonance when fears and tears abound

 

A faith that guides unfailingly through thick and thin

A quiet voice deep within which can hear above the din

A fortitude to take all in stride and learn to bear and grin

A confidence to keep moving drawing from strength within

 

A commitment to give my best just like the old adage

A freedom amid responsibility no fetters within the cage

A simplicity in need and demand sans expectation or rage

A nimble journey onwards now without any extra baggage
