How to Find Inspiration in Emotional Storms: A Poem to Guide You Through

Today, I am inspired to share a poem I wrote two years ago. Inspiration for a poem came while going through an emotional storm. Understanding that each year brings intense periods where individuals experience emotional storms, whether by choice or not, I hope this poem inspires you to prepare ahead for your upcoming challenges.

Before the storm

Listen:

Peace like bonaca.

There is not a single sound.

It is an intermezzo, 

Beginning of a new day.

Look:

I perceive a new struggle on a horizon,

There is a price to pay.

I sigh, and I take a deep breath. 

I know the enemy I have to face. 

Get ready:

I have to prepare first, though.

I need to be equipped to love.

I choose to battle.

I opt for forgiveness and love.

Read:

I turn to the book of Colossians,

Which signifies a unique type of love. 

Search out a matter:

Hidden treasures exist,

They are waiting to be found.
