Me (Published at Spillwords)

I am the lessons I have learned,
the cool aloe that covers burns.
I am the songs I hear replay,
creator of my waking days.

I am the breeze that travels time,
made up of bright memory chimes.
I am the start and end of life,
the strength that pulls through grief and strife.

I am loyal forever true,
an inner spice with peaceful hues.
I am of flaws and great mistakes,
decipher truths, discard the fake.

I am the one that gives a hand,
empathizing to understand.
I am present when life gets rough,
at times fragile but always tough.

I am a child, mother, wife, friend,
devoted love without an end.
I am a healer with insight,
guided by higher powered light.

– Grace Y. Estevez – Reddy

  1. Yay, you’re back! 😊 What a pleasant surprise to see your notification in my inbox, Grace. I was thinking about you the other day, wondering how you’re doing and if we’d be able to read your wonderful poetry again. Looking forward to your return in October. Hope you’re doing well, my friend. 😊

  2. Oh Grace dear, so sorry for the troubles that have met you, particularly regarding the hurricane helene you’ve spoken about. Been away, too, and since I returned I thought to check thrIsn’t it worth our gratitude that amid all the turbulence, you’ve still made an effort to grace our hearts with your lovely poetry! Look at these lines:

    Do not let fright
    hold good dreams back.

    Mmm, amazing, my dear friend. I wish a speedy recovery from the shock of this devastating calamity. May God be by your side. 🙏❤️🙏
