The day is short with hours planned… <br />places to be and things to do <br />Elected by proxy to take the wheel... <br />searching for a map to give a clue <br /> <br />Clouds are gathering creating cover <br />Graying purpose… blocking the sun <br />Dense humid air is creating a huge bubble <br />My thoughts trapped before they've begun <br /> <br />Guided by glazed eyes with cosmetic appeal <br />Discovering a sliver of light and transparency… <br />Arriving at a destination that is reserved <br />for those who seek with trust… and believe <br /> <br />With a shallow breath… observing the view <br />Listening and hearing silent applause… <br />A journey completed that once was impossible <br />Firmly standing… defying Murphy's Law <br /> <br /> <br />7/23/2010<br /><br />Theresa Ann Moore<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/overcoming-defeat/
