Poem
Moments come and go With the unpredictable flow Of love Joy, Sorrow, discovery, relief Gain, loss, growth, and grief ....but this.... I can see you standing, there Right there, in plain sight My love flowing toward you In truth and rainbow light ....BAM! The backlash hit me full force As your black voice ....spoke Lies, you are in agreement with lies Against the very one who willing dies ....daily, so you can live???? I can't fix it, so I walk away I will not cry, I will pray Daddy God says I have entered Bereavement Housed in the backwoods Where there is no easement ....to stay connected Enough, my LORD...I have lost enough Then light shines on the years I wanted to know nothing of Mama God Experiences, lies, disappointment Led me to believe the Holy Spirit was a fraud Even after she breathed on me And allowed me a taste of peace I walked away without even a thanks For one moment of release ....from constant torment Twenty four years of healing and comfort She was there in my loneliest hour But I wanted nothing to do with the part of God Who was responsible for the....POWER ....to destroy It was only a little while back That I finally saw her TRUTH, me in her hands As she looked upon her creation I began to understand ....she is LOVE ...............too LOVE always believes, always hopes...............LOVE never fails I will too Written by Trudy Schrader on 07/14/2020
