Daily Strife

Within our personal trials we LET
Darkness reside for we are NOT
Perfect by no means in  YOUR
Sight but we will open our HEART
To overcome our burden and BE
Lifted up and no longer TROUBLED


John 14:1

A try at HG and Dane Ann's new form of poetry.

Awesome end-line poem, Phyllis. A very good message; none of us is perfect so we must be open to enlightenment. Excellent entry -- good luck in Dane Ann's contest. I think she'll really like this one! Love, Carolyn
