Temperance

DestinysPerspectives

In the past she spoke words loudly to

be heard over the roar of chaotic flames.

The words were like gasoline growing the

flames that circled her.

It wasn’t until time and growth taught her

temperament in expression.

Now she speaks those words of a larger

Strength in quiet tones.

They smother the flames now.

Where the land was once barren there is

now growth in abundance.
