Curtis Moorman Poet Rhyme

Unrest of Spirit

UNREST OF SPIRIT

I suffered an unrest of spirit
When informed by the local law
That I could be arrested for violation 
Of the restraining order I saw

I accepted it with heartbreak
But quickly changed it to prayer
The deputy was surprised by this
He expected to leave me in despair

Tom Cunningham November 9, 2018 at 3:21 PM I hope it's a fictional write Curtis. Tom. Tom Cunningham November 9, 2018 at 4:23 PM Im very sorry to hear that Curtis. Curtis Moorman November 9, 2018 at 3:57 PM No, Tom, this one is real! My step-daughter who is married to my nephew served me notice that I am to have no contact with their children. For four years now, I have not seen or been able to talk to the two of them. The oldest will be 16 in January and the younger one will be 13 in July. Were it not for the spirit of forgiveness, I would not be able to bear the unrest.
