The Goddess

She laughs at adversity
She mocks her pain
She dances and walks
And revels in life

She does not sit
She does not wallow
Troubles assail her
But never get the best of her

She skips through
Her head held high
Never revealing her inner pain
Stream water over sharp rock dancing

She pampers herself
Through the worst of times
Long ocean walks
Luxurious solitary meals

In the deepest valleys
She finds small flowers
Reasons to laugh and smile
And never forget to live

What pure goddess is she
That all adore
And why not?
She is pure passion of life

Inspired by the character that Annette Benning played in the movie “Being Julia”
