A Break In the Clouds
If cold callous hope eats your innards
like wriggling worthless worms,
trust in the Lord who will definitely
warm your dissolute soul.
For we all have sanguine expectations,
bright prospects laced with confidence.
And oft we rely on our self convictions,
refusing help or never given spontaneously.
We fly from hope to hope,
like birds that search for the early worm.
Only to find we've lost our battle,
a sour taste on our palate
and loss of confidence on self and neighbour
not to mention putting all the blame on Him
who could have helped us spontaneously.
But think carefully my friend,
for this journey is full of bestial storms,
where thunder and lightning are deadly at times.
Yet He has given us great hope
for He provides us with what we need,
a break in the dark clouds above.
