Know This Drop That
The way up, is down
Even if only on your knees
Believe this, in Jesus Sermon,
Matthews (5,6,7): humble like these
Children, said He: you are One
Of a kind, His masterpiece
But everyone he made alike as peas
Along with this Earth Pod. I know
I also fought, once against two
I slipped, but enemies saw me fall
I kicked rapidly on my back, they flew
Like vultures in terror of a predator
I was uplifted, my faith grew
Because as I fought, I yelled JESUS
EACH KICK RENEWED His energy
Yet I went, later, the very same day
Apologized I had failed and fallen
Saving two beautiful friendships
For a moment twisted by all our pride
But the fall reevaluated my relationships:
I was down, not out, Lord has my back & hide
