Poem
"You are on a journey and all the answers are whispered without words" Quote by _ Constance I was driving on a highway and snow was falling but, it was nothing to worry about however, an hour out the snow was quite heavy and a wind was blowing wildly the highway slippery around a curve the traffic had stopped so, of course I had to stop too ... so I did I was adjusting the radio when I looked in my mirror and saw a huge transport truck coming at a very high speed I thought it was going to slow down and stop, but it did not my car was hit in the rear and I was flying over the cars I looked down and thought ... how is this possible it is as though my car had wings and at the same time I heard a whisper "not time" my life did not flash in my mind as I had heard happens as my car came crashing down on the highway medium and I heard a loud crunching sound then, I was spinning and spinning, spinning when the car stopped the police were there and helped me out I looked at my car and there was nothing left from behind the front seat the car was split in two a policeman said to me, "it was not your time, Miss" as I was walking away the car was hit by oncoming traffic that's when the tears came and I was shaking there is no way I should have survived that accident and I am quite sure there was a spiritual intervention God, was not ready to have me with him in heaven my whole body ached, and I was bruised but I was not dead obviously I still had things to do on earth God had expectations for me that is the message I carry in my soul so, until it is truly my last breath I will treasure the gift of life each new day and honor the gift of words that God bestowed to me that message I heard loud and clear for we never know when God will call our name and take us home ... the snow thick and wet fierce wind roaring like a train . . . cars lay in pieces ______________________ January 13, 2023 Poetry/Free Vere/the whisper- not your time Copyright Protected, ID 01-1517-416-13 All Rights Reserved, 2023, Constance La France Submitted to the Standard contest, A Spiritual Wisdom Download sponsor, Unseeking Seeker, Judged 01/16/2023 First Place
