I search and searched
never knowing
exactly what for? . . .
to live a full life
a simple choice?
how?
one simply decides . . .
to do
the ordinary
to love
joyously
to give
selfishlessly . . .
to help turn
dark to light
despair to hope
sadness into laughter!
In spite of it all
even when it surrounds you
to rise above
to meet at
the top of the hill!

Dedicated to my sister Katy – struggled to over come a brain tumor — Her spirit was always strong and she kept going one step at a time with joy in her heart! Katy passed this last year.
