Art, "Christmas Cabin"
By Gail Niebrugge


Sheltered
By La Belle Rouge


Lord, I tire of cold surroundings of hate and fear
this is not the way you intended mankind to live

filled with anger and revenge, desperate
to express hatred not tempered by reason
and violence without wisdom or equity

you, who are love, you, who are light
let me find serenity in your presence
and peace in your eternal promises

you, who have been a friend to me
when there were no other friends
let me know my worth in you alone

and when it seems as if you stand by
laughing at my painful calamities
remind me I’ve not seen the end yet

nor known the fullness of divine joy
have you kept my tears in your bottle?
have you numbered them, My Lord?

when a river of hate and fear swirls around me
shelter me, My God, in the depths of your love


11/15/2009 La Belle Rouge

a kind of Job-ette write: "even though He slay me yet will I trust Him"... because even death is not the end. And, while living and breathing, there is ALWAYS hope. A lovely view of sheltering, Belle: safe port in the storm from which to draw strength, then sail out again replenished. xx

Undone by the honesty in these beautiful searching lines, La Belle - one of your (many) bests - and I love that picture, as well. Excellent.

I can't express the inspiration this poem has brought me tonight. I am trying to escape an abusive dangerous situation with my husband, and just when I worry and feel cold and alone, you write such a wonderful reminder. Thank you. I do so love your writings.....flo

With thoughts like these who can question the love of God...it is so sad that we cannot change the world to be the peaceful life we wish but then we do have one love and that is...

When one founds oneself in a strange city, alone. When one founds oneself on Christmas time where they don't have Christmas, alone. When you are in the middle of nowhere surrounded by silence and calamities screaming "why me? why me?"...alone.
Is when you need a real friend, because you have had all the cold that there is.

Beautiful poem, beautiful prayer. Hate has been here about as long as we have been here, sad to say. I can't say I don't hate, Belle, but I only hate those who want to do us harm in the name of their God.
