Kim Van Breda Poet Rhyme

Wisdom In Waiting

WISDOM IN WAITING

You ask impatiently for clear direction
Frustratingly--it has not yet come
Refusing researching--wise inspection
Following our instincts we succumb


God’s silence can mean nothing
Except go ahead as we feel right
We move forward –hastily rushing
Human natures irresponsible plight


Never discerning His perfect wise will
He needs us to ask—our duty to listen
God won’t heed the deadlines we instill
His way is clear—revealing His mission

Guy Moquet July 1, 2013 at 3:28 PM I'm not religious, but I found this poem very nice regardless. Other than the message of faith that you include, the poem flows extremely nicely and it's a very smooth read. Cheers

Andrea Dietrich July 1, 2013 at 8:35 AM Very nice one, dear. And about Tom Cruise, maybe he is not as bad as the tabloids paint him. He is just too "extreme" about his religion! glad to meet a fellow Gosling fan!

Poet Tacito July 1, 2013 at 8:02 AM The faith in your heart shines intensely. This was a terrific & necessary read.

Tim Ryerson June 30, 2013 at 6:11 PM I admire your strong, unshakable faith, Kim and you put that faith into poetry so elegantly...Might I refer you to Moonbee Canady's poetry?...I think you have much in common her - Tim
