I Am Loved ~ By Deborah Rose



Twenty years building a home
 was supposed to be like a garden gnome
 Never went out much, did not bother
 Was never interested in having fun, to be fair...

 Now that I am free, mine is the victory
 In these life's troubled waters for someone's serendipity
 I have blocked my ears to their doctrine
 Many of us had it up to the brim....

 Material on my websites is shared all the time
 My art, my writing (to admit to it is not a crime)
 My friends love me and show me a lot of affection
 All in all I get a lot of attention....

 When I go dancing every few minutes I am asked to dance
 Well I can tell you now ~ all I needed was a chance
 I am grateful for every bit of encouragement along the way
 I am speechless ~ thank you ~ all I can say....
