Trials Poems - Poems about Trials

We've traveled many roads, some steep and long, kept steadfast on our walk, forever so strong. Through our ups and downs, we traveled this road, for all those times we carried life’s heavy load. Valleys and peaks may have always been there, with courage we walked, not always with despair. Below those peaks, shines a...

Locked up in a cage. But the beasts are allowed to roam. The lights are dimming and the darkness grows thick. It is like a mirror on the wall. Reflecting everything in which you desire but can never have. Those who takes gets. And those who gives loses. The scales have broken. And you sit alone. Crying on your throne....

Staring at the mirror’s image, I see what others see; but can they see the need for love so deep inside of me? I hear my laughter just as loudly as those who see my smile; but can they hear the tinge of sadness that lingers for awhile? My posture mocks a stately stance, my gait is smooth and free; but can they see the...

I don’t have my learners permit. I have had to be the adult my whole life. I have had to tend to their outbursts and tantrums.

I’m called to meet a challenge, everyday: my manner meek, my slow approach quite tame, I timidly attack the threshold frame that guards the gate and keeps the weak at bay. My mind my sword, my enemy the fray of a whirlwind day, vortex of shame, I trepidate—I prove myself thus lame, for conquest is beyond my make of clay. But, urged along...

A scenic blue are ocean’s crested waves with tufts of white that spill in feathered sprays amidst the troughs and valleys of the sea. Will time or tempest bring God back to me? Horizons hold no hint of land or line to separate the sea from the divine; just miles of ragged waves that sway and dip like drunken wains with...

MY SON In the middle of the City stands a tall gum tree With a trunk so bright reaching out to Yeah Jacaranda nearby looking up at me Yet I stand tall and proud for the world to see Sun sets on my trunk at the end of the day Trials Tribulations, I have a lot to say Don’t mean no harm...

The Universe presents its toughest tests To its strongest warriors, who stand the best Not for the faint of heart, but for those who can face The fiercest battles, with a steadfast grace For it knows their strength, their courage true Their ability to rise, after falling anew It pushes their limits, their will, their soul's might To refine their spirit, and...

Some days, it's going to rain. Some days, it will storm. Some days in Summer will be particularly warm. The wind is going to blow and the trees are going to sway. There will be days when all you can do is pray. That's just the way it goes. Sometimes you will succeed only to be held back again. Some days you will feel burdened by tribulations...

If a day starts/ ends without me, I would be totally happy and free Free from worries and anxieties Temptations and negativities The world is temporary Life has to be returned No regrets to be carried on For eternal offers more I Have been in this world long before And I thought my purpose was...

Often in this turbulent world Harsh trials seem to dominate Instead of love and compassion There is often bitterness and hate Disappointments bring us to our knees When we try to do that which is right Then we cry out to God, - - "Why" Have I failed to walk in the light ? But when we consider experiences Of great Bible characters...
