Together We Are Stronger
By Caroline Thorpe

Together our lives take place,
Overwhelming adventures we go on,
Glorious occasions give us strength,
Experiences which will always be with us are always taking place,
Transforming our lives into a unique shape,
Helping us grow and appreciating new aspects of the world,
Every life story does,
Real life moments we share.

Whispering concerns become part of our lives,
Evolving situations accompany us on our journey.

Authenticity describes their amazing uniqueness,
Reflection is a new skill we master,
Expressions gain a new meaning and contrasting emotions are a part of us.

Smiles are magical in our world,
Trying, we never stop,
Relationships are built and grow around us,
Overlooking the concerns we used to have and focusing on the light around us,
Never ever giving up while,
Gratitude is gaining a new sense of value to life,
Enjoying those little but significant moments in life,
Realising everything is just as it should be.
