Karma

Uncategorized 0 Minutes

I waited
for you to rise above your beginnings
a phoenix
a changer
a giver not a taker

you cannot say you did your best
you did what was done to you
you left your chicks with the serpents
and sometimes you were the serpent

but that time has gone
you made your legacy
put yourself at the center of your world

you reap what you sow
there is a price to pay
in countless, endless ways

Karma

Published by coloradopoet

I am a longtime lover of words, writing, reading. I am happily married with three children who are tip toeing with adulthood. I grew up in a musical home and was taught piano and in turn all my kids play the piano, and two of them, as well as my husband, are gifted vocalists. We love to make music and my copy of Les Miserables is falling apart from years of beautiful memories around the piano. Chopin and Jim Brickman feel like old friends I can't live without. I live in the beautiful city Denver where I am a nurse.
