Anniversary
to be
this free
fills me
with glee
these years
no beers
it’s odd
that God
would save
a knave
give heart
fresh start
and yet
to let
me choose,
refuse,
and by
self try,
and curse
or worse,
to flail
and fail,
and then
begin
a work
that jerks
complete
off feet,
brings low
to show
my need
indeed.
but hey,
the way
I tried
has died
and now
I bow
to Him,
my gem,
(heart sighs)
my prize.
and think!
not drink
anew
till you
call me
with thee
to dine
divine
and raise
much praise
all days,
always
