Season of the Heart

Struggling to make sense out of the bible,
Think it a lot of babble,
Or just another fable.

Before you bin your bible,
Which would be regrettable,
Take a look at the other book I have on my table.

A book that could play a part,
In a change of heart,
A book that stands apart,
With words full of  heart,
And daily quotes that could give your day a kickstart,
With communication tips to impart,
So you will take heart,
When things look like falling apart,


The book 
Seasons of the heart,
By Fr John Powell, S.J.
