Like a rose

I am myself at last;

now I achieve

My very self, I, with the wonder mellow,

Full of fine warmth,

I issue forth in clear

And single me, perfected from my fellow.

Here I am all myself. No rose-bush heaving

Its limpid sap to culmination has brought

Itself more sheer and naked out of the green

In stark-clear roses, than I to myself am brought.

~D.H Lawrence~

Discovering myself. The solid You. Calm peace shines within and then comes happiness. Stronger, mature and less confused. Celebrating that gratefulness right now.
