by B-Miles Jackson
Joy, laughter fills the air,
Can't stop singing.
The sorrow of others they bear,
A highway and a road will be there.
Up right, young and old - future bright,
Moving to life's requirements,
Following the road to enlightenment.
Work from dawn to dust;
Never changing, helping others,
Freely giving a must.
A highway shall be there and a way,
The ransomed shall return by that road.
The redeemed shall walk,
That road that leads to the highway.

The poetry of other poets inspired me to go forward, changing myself when I could not change my situation. I one child and two grandchildren., Later needing a way of expression and focus, I turned to writing poems. Writing reminds me, we must travel through life situations with as much grace and dignity as possible., I started writing in 1995 for an Open Poetry Contest with National and International Library of Poetry.
