In the dark of night, a clear sky that showed stars of plenty,
I stood last night all alone with my thoughts and fears.
A beautiful, quiet, night with everything around In my sight,
Wondering, thinking about my tomorrow and what’s to come.
I looked far beyond the stars trying hard to see beyond the mystery,
It appeared that all out there was so still to my eyes but forever moving.
I stood last night watching time go by, examing what my life Is about,
Which part of the day might this be In my time, I’m sure It’s a bit past noon.
I stood last night wondering what kind of world I am living In as I age more,
There Is much angry energy around, Is love the greatest wonder of all.?
Keith Garrett

I am on workman’s comp now for almost 10 months as I was hurt at work. I have been going to depositions and a hearing. they turned their backs on me. So much stress and pain, I’ve learned to trust less and dislike some. I write everyday and workout, walk around the park.

I think, once again, I have read something of yours at just the right time. I am, at the moment, reflecting on what if any, my part is, what is the direction of travel, and if I can bring anything of value that shows love to be the greatest gift of all. Thank you very much.
You’re welcome, thanks for reading
