Troublesome Times
Troublesome Times
Written: by Miracle Man
5/17/2024
Many times I’m bothered,
by current world events.
But I try hard each day,
accepting what life presents.
I oft believe it’s okay,
if my smile remains hidden.
Life events, too often,
flood my mind unbidden.
Many times, when feeling,
life is more than I can bear.
My one and only escape,
is seeking God face in prayer.
With my thoughts on Jesus,

Troublesome Times
By: Miracle Man

Today we are living in uncertain times,
and umpteen believe the end is nearing.
Daily we face an assortment of crimes,
and situations are rarely as appearing.
Many turn their heads and refuse to view,
opting to remain on the road most traveled.
Those whom we can trust are becoming few,
they want no part of the road untraveled.

He was a troublesome kid,
Who punched the others and hid
If this wasn't safe, off slid
To be of reprisals rid...
Venturesome troublesome kid,
Who pot distances from lid
And could 12:00 pm from Mid;
A Life of the Twisty Grid
A street wise worldly - wise kid,
Who torched things and asked "who did?"
Nigeria's Grid of A kid?.

Troublesome Wood Shed
May I tell you a secret? Whispered the old wood shed.
Treehouse is fearful of Wee House, I was told by Ned.
It is difficult to believe, but I had no reason to doubt.
I went around to hear better when my fire went out.
So, Treehouse is fearful of Wee House, I reiterated.
Old Wood Shed looked around in

Hark! Their noise is deafeningly loud, and if everyone claps,
upon these fools the building will collapse!

This Thing Called Aging
—wThis Thing Called Aging
1All day, no, far more nearly for 2 years,
I have been thinking I have had
Enough of being old, being
Pleasant about this form of present:
I have had enough of this aging task.
I wish to go back— not, no, not
Return to my troublesome youth.
No returning, please,but, perhaps,
A re-setting of some physical,
.Dimensional clock, just

Toughs of Life
Truth shall hold, and set one free
Righteousness shall reign, and let one be
Ornaments that fold, unfold at three
Under father of rain, Son Spirit be
Brighter rising against cold, sun must set free
Little to pay for pain, pans heat no fee
Else to run but feign, turns just as bee
Satan to gain is held, guns must turn

Troublesome Heart
Ive heard about love,
Of how its tempting,
Of how its addicting..
It has petrified me always,
So ive always skirted around it..
Avoiding the chaos,
Wanting nothing to do with it..
But now i tire of my empty life,
I want everything i ram away from..
The wistful sighs, the sad goodbyes,
Tge promises, the kisses,
The yearning, the mourning..
I know its not an easy

In the Most Troublesome Time of Your Life
Let me offer you a blanket for your shaking body
Let me offer you a song for your deaf ears
Let me offer you a song for your mute mouth
Let me show you the way for your lost feet
Let me show you love for your drowning heart
Let me show you direction for your troubled mind
Let me give

Troublesome Matters
Troublesome, the matters on my brain
Thoughts and emotions are hard to tame
On the edge of life and death
Not quite dead, emotional distress
Loss, worries, lonesome and pain
On the verge of going insane
A loss of love no more flame
Bills are piled, full of shame
This game of life is not a fair game
No matter how healthy you try

Troublesome Experience
Why oh why should I have this affliction
about the English language and its diction,
I never did seem able to spell
nor use the proper adjectives that well,
at school I was bottom of the class
teacher felt I was too dense to pass,
I gave English away as a bad job
so what! let everyone else be a nob,
I

Troublesome times
By Margaret L. Campbell
Troublesome times
You and me
Tough it out
Can we try?
What to do?
Make a stand
Love you so
Makes me cry
Feel really bad
Dry my eyes
Pain never subsides
Though it hurts
Could we change?
Time to grow

Troublesome Nights
We're here to help each other
and that's all I could ever ask
It eases the pain
even only for a little while
The little words mean a lot
even with long spaces
But that's okay
because we come right back
and give each other self-worth
on these hard troublesome nights
