Poem Artwork

In this my stagnant pond
that neither sucks me under
or lifts me upward
moves me forward
or backward


I sit  


Contemplating whether I must of done something good


Or did I do no good
lead a useless life
touch no one
in any special way
to be deserving


Of love
And all the fruits therein


I would grab a rope
if one were suspended
above my head
hold on tight
and be lifted out


Of this pit
Clean up and run far far away from here!

Somewhere in your wicked childhood, you must have done something good, Ch'erie, for here you are writing delightful poems and that stagnant pond is stewing nicely, thank you very much!

The pendulum swings back and forth. The sun comes up, the sun sets, we sleep, we rise, we get clean, we get dirty, these seasons will pass. Promise!

Ch'erie

You deserve to have that rope.Almighty God will answer in his own good time, or to coin a phrase " When he is right and ready "...
It's all about divine timing, everything has got be just right and perfect..
You are in my prayers !
Love
