    About this ebook

    Poems for This Time is second in a series, with Poems for Your Brave Heart, of poetry addressing contemporary times and issues. Poems for This Time follows the journey of a mountain stream as it becomes a mighty river, traveling through the Beginning, Lessons, Seasons, Journey, Momentum, and Rebecoming. The mountain stream is our guide as it becomes its greatest Self, a mighty river. We, like the stream, are living a series of moments beautifully woven together to become a glorious whole. Some moments are times of new beginnings. Some moments are learning times. Some moments are grieving times and some are rejoicing times. Some are ordinary times for rest. We find our truth in some times. We remedy disappointments in some of our times. We receive healing and we find perfection and highest love in yet others of our times. We cannot live a life without encountering journey, and, as we encounter journey, we become our truest Self.
