Standing by my friend
makes us strong to the end
despite a day’s wayward quirks –
Loyalty makes life work
Never turning my back
on a companion’s lack
keeps us together –
Commitment is a joyful tether
Answering the call of alarm
without regard for hurt or harm
fosters solidarity –
Helpfulness creates clarity
To myself being true
my place is realized anew
I am what I do –
Identity sets the crew
I am the miracle
and so I cannot be fickle –
Dreams dreaming
and Visions seeing
To realization I am led
but it is not straight ahead
for I must be willing to digress –
Lost and Behind completes despite stress
To be prepared I can
but I know there is no plan
and fearless the journey I renew –
Faithfulness finds a way through
Transformed I do what I do
Transfigured I am what I am
I listen and with my heart feel –
Fulfillment makes me real
