We are all destined for greatness

That’s does not mean it will be easy,

We won’t be handed life on a platter

No, life will definitely be uneasy.

***

Destiny is not loss of control

No, you need to choose to follow,

You’re welcome to say no

But life may be harder to swallow.

***

To live your absolute best life

You will want to do your best,

Destiny will present itself

And that’s the time to say yes.

***

I’m determined to follow Destiny

Whenever she raises her head,

It’s these valuable life lessons

That will help me get ahead.

***

I would change absolutely nothing

Unless it didn’t fit Destiny’s plan,

As it’s my total life experiences

That have forged the person I am.

About the Creator

Colleen Millsteed

My first love is poetry — it’s like a desperate need to write, to free up space in my mind, to escape the constant noise in my head. Most of the time the poems write themselves — I’m just the conduit holding the metaphorical pen.
