On Turning 40

Youth, it seems
In retrospect to be
A swamp

A tangle of trials and tests
Filtering us through the maze
Of options

Choices and passages
We change
As we choose

Each turn we take
Each choice
Directs our path, our focus

Now, turning 40
I count myself blessed
To survive and grow

To find the compass
Of love, experience
And faith

Blessed to know who I am
To accept my path
Unique to all

Precicely my own
To be comfortable
In my skin

To know that all we are
All we have
Is but part of the Master plan
