Time And Fate Have This Grievous Lesson Taught

Of all the virgin fields I once plowed
There were many meadows of purest gold
Not one to enjoy being in a crowd
Prideful that my honor never was sold
I in my haste once truly lost my way
Allowing Love to over me thus rule
I now understand and rule that dark day
For my stark blindness and being a fool.

As this too oft dark world seeks to destroy
Trap was set, she a sensual creature
Her ultimate goal take away my joy
Her ravishing beauty, her great feature
I dreamed, I begged for her sweet love
And she with her darkness played along
She was the ravenous wolf,  I the dove
Teaching me depths of saddest lost love song.

Time and Fate have this grievous lesson taught
Fake love,  lie in it - you will soon be caught.

Robert J. Lindley,   4-08-1991

Grievous Words

The harshness of a persons voice,
can distort the intent of a spoken word.
Though an apology always comes by choice,
it won’t erase any damage incurred.


Proverbs 15:1
“A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger.”

By ‘grievous matter’ with regard to sin mean that the thought
Word or deed which is committed must be either bad in itself
Or severely prohibited
And therefore sufficient to make a mortal sin if we deliberately yield to it
