Fragile, yet unbroken

Remaining soft-spoken

 

Perplexed, yet answers found

Feeling free, homeward bound

 

Deadlocked, yet finding key

Moving on, let it be

 

Homeless, yet seeing light

Making nightly campsite

 

Troubled, yet finding peace

Forging life’s brand new lease

 

Hidden, yet discovered

Finding future covered

 

Misplaced, yet always found

Sleeping on softest ground

 

Wounded, yet walking free

Earning final degree

 

Useless, yet finding worth

Flying high above earth

 

Hungry, yet always fed

Tasting life’s daily bread

 

Shortchanged, yet now fulfilled

Making steps, always thrilled

 

Forgotten, yet now loved

Sharing days with beloved
