Troubled Grounds
These frail and weary wings,
They can't launch me over these things,
I move about like a bob that swings,
Each day bites and stings,
I'm tied to gloom’s apron strings,
Turbulence like a bell rings,
I wear hope slings,
Looking beyond all dreary things,
Listening to the song that faith sings.
