Amen. This is beautiful and true. The crown was never something I had to chase. God was helping me remember it was already within me. Through fear, pain, and illusion, I found my way back to peace, faith, and the truth of who I am. Thank you for this reminder of my journey as well many blessing and peace to you 🙏

You had me from the first stanza; however, this hit home and made me pause:

You saw through illusions,

and you gained your strength,

As the structures, lies built on—

they started to break

There is a powerful beauty in your words. Today, I paused, sat, and reread. Thank you for sharing.

"The stillness within—

it brought you great Truth

Remembrance, the witness,

with nothing to prove"

Beautiful as always Stephanie. I think so many of us forget our own strength sometimes, especially when life knocks us sideways. Finding that little bit of belief in yourself again is such a powerful thing. Thank you for the reminder 🌹

Stephanie, the theme of remembrance gives this poem its emotional center. Many people spend years searching for peace, confidence, purpose, or belonging as though they are distant destinations, while your poem suggests they become accessible when we recover what was already present beneath fear, doubt, and illusion. The image of the crown feels especially meaningful because it is received through recognition rather than achievement; the worthiness was never absent, only forgotten. Thank you for sharing a reflection that invites readers to consider how much of the journey may involve remembering rather than acquiring, and for your gratitude.

Rev. Kevin, I could not have provided a better insight and reflection for this piece. Thank you for receiving it in such a way, and thank you for taking the time to write a most beautiful, complementary reflection. I really appreciate your presence here. Many blessings 🙏💕🫶

Rev. Kevin T. Taylor's avatar

Stephanie, your kindness is deeply appreciated. One of the gifts of poetry is that it creates space for readers to discover meanings that may have been present all along, and your writing invited exactly that kind of reflection. The theme of remembrance felt especially rich because so many of us spend our lives searching for what may already be ours to receive once we see it clearly. Thank you for sharing your work so generously and for creating a space where such thoughtful conversations can unfold.
