Redemption is a poem based on my personal journey with faith... I was b orn in a home for unwed mothers, and adopted at birth. Since, I found out I was adopted at 5 years old, my heritage had always been an empty void for me. During my childhood, I spent a great deal of time hiking and reflecting on life, so even today it is an essential part of my spiritual journey. Redemption I did not find God in churches or in books. He was in each new step as I learned to walk closer to the truth. He whispers to me from around the corner. He calls to me from atop the mountains. His laughter is the melody of the stream. His smile is the warmth of the sun. I follow his steps through the woods. Together we explore canyons and myths. He rests against a rock near a gentle waterfall. He is humble, yet divine. He teaches with patience and virtue. Life holds no glory or fame in the moment of passing. We his children are content...
