~ (~) ~ of Sweet Surrender ~ (~) ~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Saw-an older-yet still-rather now that I think-of it-quite-young looking-physically
and-mentally... disabled-person get on-the bus one-afternoon-as I was-riding,
Joyous, stagily boisterous... !"
Believe-he-had-of-the-purest-right-to-be... !""
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
""Beautiful yes I so happy;
he-said,
"
"First-time riding on bus-yes... .
he-took his-time... .""
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Some-never make it this far.
Again-my-heart soared as it cried so proud yes-so proud you-bet I sure-was for-him... !
"I heard those whispers you get you-know, whatever color, race; "Gee, oh-man, good-God I
just-got off work-now I have to deal again with this... is this going to take all day... ?"
"This grand example of God's mercy, the time-with another spent to support this innocent
walk he carried well yes his burden the-prudent-culmination-on this given-day of their
faithfulness... illustrious!"
"Yea-no judgment of himself-another I bet-even crossed his mind-probably I felt he
striving for his-own he finally got it."
"I feel-it was the-freedom of his independence through His individuality-offered to-him
like-it just-could be like this with-all of-us... ."
"He-new anything less than this surrendered to something-far greater than the-heckling
he-received, I believe borne this way He-was offered to all of-us only and maybe just
alone for this very-reason-that day... ."
"Matters not the indifference, feel-it'd be a far-sight-better without it, believe they
remain as-such all-to teach us, I know their all sweet-lullaby's of-surrender if-truly;
tuning into their-song; we-all-might-just take a small-moment and-look... .
In-fair-support-unified bound; our hearts soaring taking in the faithful choruses,
bellowing out loud together their-grateful songs... .
