Poem Title:
Poem
7. The river of life is only bringing a tide of strife. Oh, I pray Father, such a joy to be alive and enjoying all your creation. It’s like a River constantly flowing and I am afloat on that river just enjoying my life with my father. As I look around me, I notice not many have the same enjoyment as I have and that saddens me that many don’t feel the love of my Father. It causes strife such as a homeless person trying to find work. I just can’t control this. 8. The Sun so bright quickly burns and withers until the night. Father, the Sun is magnificent and truly you. The light brings joy to many a life and for some the sun will burn and fade thoughts and things and soon as the light goes dim, things will cease to exist. I understand Father, that life is so brilliant but can also be so dull. 9. Then the fog rest in, blocking the view from within My dear Father I pray; I seem to know what I’m doing but there are times I lose focus. Is it because I looked away from you or am I missing a bit of wisdom? Either way, I know I am facing more than I can handle simply on my own. I will continue to seek my way with you and have faith that my path is straight. 10. I pray out loud and listen to silence realize it’s me on that fence My Father, how much I pray to you always giving thanks for my life. There are times I am a bit confused because others around me lean another way. I try to conform and seek your wisdom and most of the time I am balancing my life with you and the life of others, trying to be a friend with you father at my side. 11. This way or that, it’s about a cat, finer than fine. Father, I see life as Heaven surrounding me. There is so much to live for, and the perfect way is with you. You give me such assurance of how perfect you make life for me. A cat is a perfect example of what could seem a disaster is protected by my father in all I do. 12. Let it fall upside down right to its feet every time. I see a cat fall from a height and the way it will twist and turn and safely land on its feet. This is my father’s doing, this I know that perfection is so fine. Yes, it’s finer than fine. 13. This is my life, and everything seems clear I know Father, I am alive and breathing your air, eating your food and love all around me I will faithfully pursue. With you holding me close, I have purpose to live every day and I will be able to survive all things and all others in my narrow path I hold so close to follow towards you. continued....TTGIL 12/25/21
