Memories fade from a past life gone
Embraced by the passion of her courtiers
Her ears caressed by loving words of comfort
Angst takes hold
She’ll love again
Her name is Friendship
Alone she sits in a wooded glen.

I am finishing my Doctoral dissertation on developing self-replicating teams for church planting and working for Logos Bible Software. God is awesome! Last week I shared my Myers-Briggs personality type (aka Golden DISC Personify Profile) as ENFZ. Looking inside those results, my leadership style is described as a Communicator & Caring Coach.

Signs of a Struggle

Several people have inquired about the meaning behind this poem. I certainly have my own story, but my hope is that everyone reading will find their own meaning in this poem by connecting with their own experience and emotions.

Thank you for sharing this poem.
