Twin Rhymes

I shed far too many tears
I cradle oh so many fears

I have dealt with sore, nasty distress
Merely, I was looking for happiness

It’s just too much stress
Instead, I want gladness

Will You give it to me, Lord?
I pray and pray for Your accord

Your halcyon serenity holds me tight
You are like an airborne falcon tonight
