My Bracelet

I have a bracelet filled with small charms
Each a reminder of a year among farms

A pendant with my name and one with the year,
A cake for my birthday, my dating year :)

The rest stand for values and things special to me
One for music, one for Christmas, and a cute little bee

A pendant for faith, a crown for divine nature,
A torch for individual worth, a more come after

A globe for knowledge, compass--choice, accountability,
A heart for good works, and a light house--integrity.

Among these is one more, a small handcart
So I can keep that journey close to my heart.

I do not often wear my bracelet, but through it
I remember that year and others like it.
