The Rookie

THE ROOKIE He said there is no “GOD” She said it might be true They, “both-in-one”, recounted scen-a-rios To explain the stand He-she took; I was sooo hard on rocks: And where was HE! I sooo needed him when my loved one was sick: And where was HE! I fell, real hard, and needed an Anchor: And where was HE! I cried, so hard, because I thought I was just a Patsy: And where was HE! My mom and dad broke-up: And where was HE! I was going wayward, with no conscience to tickle or trigger: And the same…. Where was HE! Then it Dawns…. HE! Is and was there…. Always, in everything… In the Good and Bad, The beautiful and ugly, The preferred and disgusted… And, He-She understands, I “am” and “was” a ROOKIE! In life-experiences In my suffering- Perhaps! In my “ardent” search for HIM; and For answers….. Thus, HE’s there and truly EXISTS…. BY ASANGALISAH AKANTERE ISAIAH
