A Journey — From Auspiciousness to Pure Gold

Childhood

Auspiciousness in tow
She came to this world
You could see the purity in her eyes
Brave beyond her age she was
As the morning sun began to rise

Wild like a fawn
She pranced with glee
Fascinated by the thought of life
Seeds of imagination began to germinate
Her mind, sharper than a knife

A versatile artist
With fingers of magic
Her voice filled the air with delight
Good at everything she tried
A perfectionist, a beacon of light

In a man's world
She walked unafraid
Never gave in without a fight
Her skills and talents sailed her through
She always stood up for what was right

Pre-Marriage

Along with the passing winds of time
She bloomed, with her smile came joy
To the world she brought boundless hope
As her dreams opened up to fly

The skies were the limit
The journey was set
Who knew what the next turn would bring?
Every step she took
As if shaped by the harps
That the gods play as they sing

Marriage

As the sun rose through the morning sky
Illuminating the next steps in life
She found love, and with it responsibility
To walk through life's journey as a wife

And this challenge she took
With a beaming smile
She knew nothing would be the same
New family, new place, new rules, new tastes
She even had to change her name

Married Life

To start a new life
In a whole new city
New house, new job, new friends
Her spirit untouched
She took it in her stride
Anew, she started to blend

2 kids in tow, and the husband away
Many nights like such she faced
The crises kept lurking
The pressure kept surging
Yet she radiated with love and grace

Current

The sun has seen her baffling all odds
It's seen her come so far
As she aces through life
A daughter, friend, and wife
A mother, she's truly a star

Now the adventure goes on
As she explores
All the lovely facets
That life holds
At the prime of her life
There's so much more
In the journey from
Auspiciousness to pure gold
