TRYING

By Cecilia Wynn

Those with bandages,

They heal their wounds.

Those with damages,

They hide them well.

Rarely complaining,

Rained with cold pain.

Rather than raging,

Ready again.

Youthfully growing

Yet pain is part.

Yearly bestowing.

Yield gifts of heart.

In life together

Inspires belief.

In death forever

Imbues relief.

Needing everyday

Nature which fights

Never faraway

Numbness in life.

Granting self the time.

Getting closer.

Giving all to climb.

Gaining closure. ❧
