[bodytext] => The Road to Recovery My Road to recovery Has been long and hard Filled with emotion And has left many a scare My life has been one full of experience And never for a moment dull Good times and bad I’ve always kept my plate full Questionable choices and unwise decisions Have left their toil I thank God that the roots of my upbringing Were planted deep and in good soil I look back now with my life here Most likely near half complete I honestly can say it’s been a victory Even though there have been times near defeat I can’t help but reflect on all the things Done and not done in almost disbelief How I’m still standing here Is a blessing and relief Even though I experienced many things On my journey up to this time Much has been wasted and squandered As I walked that fine line My road to recovery Can only be explained as a life and death A portion of the person inside had to die So the Man I am would be Left. To live the life for which I was chosen I had to experience a resurrection Of my heart, my mind and my soul There had to be a reconnection There have been so many people That have been effected by my chosen road Some detrimental while others Carried more than a fair load I want you all to know Whether your one of the good or the bad I’m equally thankful for you both Cause you can’t know true happiness without some sad I had a dark cloud that seemed To hang over and follow where ever I would go I’m pleased to say I’ve stepped out From under it before it took me too low There are so many things I’d like to say And so many I’d like to thank But I’m just gonna tell you all My appreciation level is impossible to rank My road to recovery Has been wrought the heartache and sorrow But thanks be to God That the sun will rise again Tomorrow So don’t give up and no matter what Never ever quit Life is full of blessings And it’s an amazing and wonderful trip JD Wright 03/23/2010 [comments] => 2 [counter] => 175 [topic] => 48 [informant] => jdwright [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 14 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
