Reckoning Our Recourse

While wishing for that convenient chair
do not arrange answers with presumed prayer.
Wise words in recourse reckoning -
patience preferred and bless-ed beckoning. 
Listen, look up until grace
rewards reason with your Father’s face.
Find rest and relief in His embrace.

It was the surreal one, man walking a tightrope, with a chair on the other side. Thanks for the read, Andrea.

Thank you, Paula, Too often, when I'm walking, I have my head down...except that one time when I stepped into wet concrete and ruined my sneakers. Didn't do too much damage, I got out in two steps. I appreciate the read.
