Analysis of My Spirit Enthroned
Surrendering very little back to life,
the time became solely my own
Which I spent on myself and the ones I loved,
protecting what inside was my home
The years raced along with my memory endowed,
regrets being seldom and few
Each choice that I made—every promise I kept,
my spirit enthroned sovereign and new
(Villanova Pennsylvania: January, 2019)
