Directed Through Adverse Winds Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

There is nothing like the feeling,
Of being vindicated...
After spending YEARS of one's life,
Doing those things felt right...
For reasons one could not explain,
But knew to do.
As if directed through adverse winds.
And stormy seas.

There is nothing like the welcoming of light.
Or a calm feeling existing from within,
That validates the path one has taken...
On a journey,
And most times alone...
One has known,
Has always been the only route to secure...
The meaning of one's happiness.
