Ancestors Proud
1/15/11

I often forget in my aloneness
that always there is great company
of those who came before me,
whether just imagination or a reality,
looking upon my antics and life
as a culmination of their efforts,
refined by individuals evolving sensibilities, consciousness,
combined through generations of hard work
to create progeny that continues lineage,
gives hope, as example to children
who can believe there's brighter world
in future of unknown possibility, potential,
where faith is daring of soul
going farther that it can see,
which catalyzes an exponential inner will
able to overcome omnipresent human challenges
when wanting to advance myself above,
beyond the mundane, expressing unique soul
embodied as 'me' making ancestors proud.
