Stonewalled...and Alone!

You wake up each morning
Without a face to look at
Each day a challenge
But patiently you gear up
A block of courage to fight
A solid goal to lock your eyes on
An ounce of faith to trust
A barrel of strength to last
Some nourishment to keep you
Stable and firm in your steps
As you navigate your way
One small step at a time
Determined to climb over
Stonewall, lifeless often cold
In your bid to last another day!

Stonewalled....and alone...

Courage, faith, strength, wisely navigating in order not to get ourselves in trouble, and resolve - we need all of them to live just a single day - too much of a baggage for one person to carry. We need someone to halve the burden. When alone we are stonewalled, we'll never climb over - no way. Many thanks for sharing this one and for finding inspiration in my writing!

Hi, orienalkoru,
Stable and firm in your steps As you navigate your way is a goal we all can embrace. Though perhaps more easily obtained when not alone, there are many who are successful, regardless, and provide inspiration to patiently...gear up. Thanks for sharing the wisdom of One small step at a time.

And to my husband Nu...even if you did not comment publicly...I thought I could never convince you I didn't write this for you or for us unless you read my reply to Marikia.

I understand why you thought I wrote this for you. There are times when you are not there in the mornings when I wake up and I don't get to see your beautiful face...that is very true...but you never leave me without a kiss on my cheek or forehead whether I am asleep or awake and whether you're happy or mad he he he!

I don't say it as often as I should but I am grateful for all the little things that you do. There are days and times when I feel alone and lonely while you are at work and you forget to call me (he he he) but I don't have a stonewall to climb (and I pray I never will)...because you seem to know how to chip the stones away and keep the view open for both of us. Thanks my dear...
