Poem
Last night I had a worried thought Come coursing to my mind Of my husband having car trouble And other thoughts unwind The vision of him losing power And a veering of the wheels A fear of course crept quickly with an Icy kind of feel I saw in thought the railroad tracks And a wreck that sent chills up my back So, I prayed for God's protection And that He would keep him safe While the fears then seemed to go away And not leave me tortured chafe When he came from work I told him Of my fear and prayer He told me NOT the thing he thought May give me a dispair About an hour ago or so, he left for just Awhile He with youngest son in tow, returning With a smile "Well, we got the car home." He said mysteriously I hadn't noticed he'd taken my car Or that he had my key Puzzled I then asked him, What are you speaking of? He told me of the issue that He'd kept concealed in love Last night on his way home The mini van lost power The lights were fading from headlamps And the car was running sour This on approaching railroad track The engine died, but then started back Giving trouble the next few miles Then coasted several blocks toward home On prayers, and angel smiles? He took a lefthand turn in coast A few short blocks from home And hit the curb and popped a tire With only a short jaunts hike to roam He came in from the cold last night Just slightly out of breath I told him of my worried thoughts And prayers to God wherewith But I have only learned of this whole Episode today!!! I'm writing this to tell you When you have dark fears pass your way Do not take it lightly friends Lift up your heart and pray!!
