My Body Hid a Secret Hardback

Heartbeat poem

  • The Essence of Life


    There’s one thing in life, over time, set in place,
    A constant companion in the race.
    A unique rhythm, never silent, pounding,
    Life’s very heartbeat, constant, sounding.

    Your calling in life, forever true,
    The very essence of what makes you.
    It’s never too late to embrace and own,
    The very you, worn and known.

    Where fear holds back, trust the call,
    Gods gift to you for one and all.
    Step on through and be at ease,
    A perfect fit, a summer breeze.

    It’s time to live again.
