Lady on Wheels

Lady on Wheels

 

She feels strongly

About things that take place.

Her dreams are hers only,

And no one could take them away.

 

Thriving for success

On her own terms.

Trying her best,

Lady on wheels, catching every turn.

 

Seated lower than eye level,

She is always looking up…

And reaching is inevitable

To fill her crystal cup.

 

She is learning to laugh through fear

And stand strong, if only in her spirit.

She is unafraid to shed tears.

Lady on wheels, she knows how to steer it.

 

Traveling her unique path,

She relies on her hope.

With the wind at her back,

She carries the load.

 

Rolling through life,

She hopes to fulfill

All the dreams she has inside.

Lady on wheels.

I liked the story told in the poem dear Melinda.
