Hopeful and Honest In Its Entirety
"As the thunder rolls away above and beyond the-
hills there over yonder with the fish jumping now
black crows above me heckling, cows bellowing moo,
geese cackling too ... frogs appearing by the dozen's
hopping around looking at me rather curiously
as to say " Look out for them apples." jumping
into the stream showing their joyous bottoms
off to me before they hop in the waters ribbit,
ribbit, ribbit-thunk splashing. So with all of
this, you could say I'm feeling rather
humbled just like Newton I would
assume. All giddy and-enlightened
and evermore heartened I'm sure
and a little dizzy yet as he would
be too, still I would presume.
Running head on with this
proposal."
"That with God, given the gravity-
of it being whatever the situation or-
circumstance, whether with my eyes-
opened or be it them fully closed. Still,
with my patient Friend I'm learning,
though I seem to be having a real hard
hard time at it myself, being rather-
stubborn at the moment, but as I-
know it is well with Him... as-
He is always open to-
me and my prayers,
I am aware as I
know my fate,
with-Him, is-
secured."
