A MUSE

..
Strong and bold, inquisitive
I walk in stress
No pussy-footing "we";
The seeking hands of healer
Lays helpful pain on me!
..
Sometimes, it seams,
The more it hurts,
The more I laugh
In satisfact'ry glee
And still,
..
When he lets go
My pain goes too,
And I will laugh
Through drying tears
..
One day I'll loose
The hapless pack
I stolidly and daily stack
Hanging on my straining back
..
And see the light
That shines so bright
Live and love delightedly,
Just by simply being me!
