SOLILOQUY
by:
Alora M. Knight
When evening comes, I meditate
On what the day has brought,
And do my best to understand
What lessons have been taught.
For I believe the reason why
We have been given birth
Is we must meet the challenges
That we face here on earth.
Life isn't just a one-way street
Where we can't lift our voices.
From birth until the day we die,
We're given many choices.
I have to question, did I try
To really understand
The needs that someone else may have
And lend a helping hand?
If I will just remember
To light one little spark
That brightens someone else's life
That otherwise is dark.
Then I can find contentment
In doing what I can,
And knowing there's a reason
I've been chosen for His plan.
