Contention

Oh to be content, a state of mind A conclusive state I cannot find But should I stop, consider, compare Be it a place, then I'm almost there What barricade stops me in my tracks Do I over contemplate the facts I'm more content than I do admit Epitomising content misfit Couplet Poetry Poetry Contest 7th May 2023 Sponsored by: Sotto Poet

I can relate to this couplet. I have a lot to be content with; my overthinking gets in the way. Great couplet. Good luck in the contest, DD.

Contentment, for me, is in the love of Jesus, my Redeemer. Grace. Faith. Hope. Love - Praying for all your best, much appreciation and love, God bless you, Gina
