The Controller

His goal to totally control
Harder he tried more life capsized
Now wonders what happened to soul
Eternity reveals untold

Trying to control another person's behavior is always a mistake. Good thoughts penned here succinctly in a form that's new to me. Love, Carolyn

Smile ~ Now this sounds as if it would be a very hard lesson learned "Dear Precious and Gifted Sara Kendrick" ~ And one could hope that as the thief upon The Cross Next to Christ that, they find Mercy before the light is perhaps forever gone from their Precious Eyes ~ Hope Your doing well dear and, I love the thoughts born amid this well written poem ~ "Much Love to You and Yours, Always," John! ~ Smile, "Have A Beautiful Day Dear Sara;" Bye!:) ~
