Fritter and Waste
Fritter and waste
toiled in haste
My life was stuck on fast forward
Outa my mind...
Couldn't rewind
Even as my life raced toward
The cliff just there
Beyond the glare
Of life puddles, spilled not poured
Out of the noise
Echoed a voice
A distant life where serenity soared
"Cash it all in"
Again!... Again!
"This life begs a price your peace can't afford"
We found the boy
Bursting with joy
Singing of life, gently measured not harshly scored
We walk the ledge
Peace from a pledge
life is lived now, clarity of charity restored
The life I dreamed
Whispered not screamed
Promises refound resound, communion with my Lord
