Hiding from the World...

Its in the morning that I see the worst in my life...and find myself writing about it...


Poem Artwork

In the house today,

Yes, hiding from the world,

Tis cooler than it has been,

And to God I want to herald,

That I am trying to see Him & life clearer…

 

I whine too much, this I know,

I look forward to not so distant eviction,

I worry about my electric not being paid,

But then again if I’m evicted, who needs electric,

For a job I keep trying, this is my, for now, conviction…

 

Even TV I find to be boring,

I wish for the past when Rene & I were touring,

But as a reviewer did recently say, (thanks, Andy)

The past is History,

The future Mystery,

Today is a gift; that’s why they call it the Present…

 

So I will try to muddle on,

Through thick & thin,

Trying not to commit any sin,

Waiting for that one day when I will again win…

Positive thoughts do yield positive results but I agree they don't always pay the damn bills. Patrick

Come out, come out where ever you are. God will take care of you. Only trust Him, right now.

Getting ourselves on the positive wagon is the smartest thing we can do when our feet are sucked by blues quicksands. To stay still and wail in self pity only make us more heavy, and remember you are standing on quicksands; the positive wagon maybe is not moving too fast...but is moving!

With time comes wisdom where we find God and acknowledge the gift He gave us, though it be meager, He is ther, which you have. You give us all courage to endure and place our faith in God. May God now bless you with employment.
