Silent Tribulations

Silent Tribulations Sitting within a circle of prayer bled dry by raw emotions Spent are words past understanding as tears plea now in devotion Naked came I into the world crying again now with baring of soul As tears carry words I can’t express wringing out my worries and woe Within each silent tribulation flows a healing dissertation All Rights Reserved by Debra Squyres 2013 Free Verse??

It's interesting that to bare my soul now creates a vulnerability as had as an infant and also an honesty toward reality. As you point out, it is difficult to come to grips with worries and woe, and the healing is through a process that may be painful--I don't like facing my flaws. Debra, you have wisdom!

Deb; This is very good. We all have those silent tribulations, but prayer has a lot of power. Thanks for sharing. Lucilla

Rhyme or reason, free verse or treason. The message still was heard. A soul cried out in silent shout with every solemn word. The sanctity of inner peace was shrouded by his love. With angels sitting by your side sent there from up above. Peace my dear friend. :)
