This poem was commissioned by a mother for her son, who has been using his prison sentence to change himself from the inside out.
The journey we are on
takes us where we need to go
where our path will lead us
we do not always know
of one thing we can be certain
regardless of the hour
our steps are layed before us
planned by a higher power
wherever we find ourselves
there is sure to be a need
and when we open to our inner voice
when we listen and we heed
we realize those around us
are on the same path as we
our task is to be the light of the world
that allows us all to see
that regardless of our flaws
or mistakes that we have made
however many times
from our true path we have strayed
each of us is worthy
to have and to give love
and when we take the journey inward
we see that as below is as above
wherever you are planted
and wherever you might be
allow Divine Love to flow through you
and you are always free
