I Choose Acceptance..



April 4, 2012
Written for Haiku Heights
April Challenge..


Prompt : Doubt

I Choose Acceptance


All decked up
I look in the mirror;
doubt laughs at me..

Doubt laughs at me
on every occasion;
beauty conscious

Beauty conscious;
I make up my features
doubting God's gifts..

Doubting God's gifts;
I choose acceptance to
maintain my grey..

RS:)

    Hi RS,

    Being gray is no big deal...it is only a color...but to be known having gray area...ha ha...that's another story!

    A beautiful poem RS!

    I like your dry sense of humour. Men are such peacocks
    aren't they!
