I woke up this morning feeling lonely and blue.
I clung to self-pity, and even cried for a while
Until I looked up and was reminded of You
And all traces of sorrow were replaced by a smile.
Little bubbles of joy burst out of my heart,
Some floating through my arms, lifting them high.
Other bubbles slip down to my feet and I start
to bounce up and down like I could leap to the sky.
I wiggle and twirl with no rhythm or rhyme
to the song that You put in my heart and my soul.
The music is Yours, but the joy is all mine
as I reach the place where praising You is my goal.
I forget all my troubles that now seem petty and small
As, like King David, I dance with no dignity
before the True King, I am giving my all
I'm dancing for You, Daddy, will You dance with me?
You have turned for me my mourning into dancing;
You have put off my sackcloth and clothed me with gladness..
Psalm 30:11
Please keep writing; this poem reminds me to focus on the joy of my Lord, not the problems in my life.
I love your picture!
Hugs,
