 Harry Sweeden. My life in verse.

Tragedy and Triumph


It is not contentment I seek…
for whom would I be content
free of life's tragedies and triumphs?
It is conflict that spurs me
tragedy that inspires me to understand
and triumph that humbles me into believing.
Chaos is all around and inside of me
but I have found a calm…
a calm that brings me peace and contentment
… but it is not contentment I seek
for whom would I be content?
