In the Nick of Time

© By Kathy Armijo

 

 

Have I shared my “Wows!” with you?

Someone was asking for a handout

Only a couple of bucks to my name

But, I gave it to this poor person just the same

It was only a few days until payday

 

Got home to a disconnect utility notice

Sheish, now no money to my name

Figured I’d do laundry to occupy my mind

You guessed it … The key to the bank box that is what I did find

Yep, I had one hundred dollars in the bank box.  WOW!

 

Had two diapers left … Needed to get to the store

Washing machine decided to overflow

Can you feel the stress?

Woops, one diaper left and what a mess!

Doorbell rings [dang it] … oh, my, it’s the new diaper delivery service.  WOW!

 

Life bit me in the butt

Boy, was I having a hard time

Didn’t know which way to turn

Thought about getting blitzed at the local tavern

Unexpectedly, a friend drops by and unknowingly brightens my day.  WOW!

 

Throughout my life

In the nick of time

His love reaches out and touches me

Wondrous beauty is His majesty

He sure does love me.  WOW!

Hahaha!! Kathy, I need to start hanging around you . . . I understand completely your thought process and the poem . . . Things are never as bad as they might seem most of the time . . . It is our fears which cause us to feel there is no hope . . . You have done well by projected what real hope is all about . . . Good work . . .
