The Temptation

Mine a trial was cool
My heart was forced into a pool
Only due to an inviting pull
A pull not into a pool a center of the fool
But as accrues  fruits of a heart so full…

Everything everywhere led so dull
And the angel came as a bouncing ball
All to be celestial to me – a pal
All this not even condemned by Paul
So pretty – what a welcome, a call

At first blush all was like a tale
My face changed into pale
Something of a, ‘can’t tell’,
But my heart could tell,
Pouncing to a trial so well
Every day I recall scenes at the well.

Not all temptations are evil
Mine was God’s will;
She rolled to me like a wheel
For my lesions to heal
She came for all gaps – to seal,
Justified was the trial, for real.
	She came not to kill
	She paid up my bill
In my back they would drill
