PATTERNS of LIFE

chain by chain
 in generation's pattern
of lives past
we wait 
&
wait in line
repeating 
  mistakes
treading
 the same circle
imagining
 progress is reality

I wanted to say thank you for participating in my contest. I enjoyed reading your winning work, way to go. I agree that sometimes each generation can make the same mistakes as the parent/s, but through the shed blood of Jesus those patterns can be broken, but without Him they can go back the same way.
