Sometimes life can seem overwhelming but there is help you just have to ask . Luke


HAVING A BAD DAY ?


Oh, I’m having a bad day
When asked , I don’t know what to say .
My spirits damp like a rain in May
I need help but can’t seem to pray .

I find a spot to sit and mope
Been so stupid , feel like a dope
Spirits so low, I’ve lost my hope
I’d hang myself but can’t find a rope .

My mind wanders all over the place
Was I meant for this human race ?
Bones weary , can’t stand the pace
Tomorrow’s a day I don’t want to face.

Why Lord , does this happen to me ?
No joy in my life that I can see .
In frustration I kneel on bended knee
I beg you Lord set my spirit free .

Through the fog I hear a voice ,
“remember son , you have a choice
I gave you life for to rejoice
Not to play with like Satan’s dice .”

Not a game of chance , no casual bet
One go around is all you get .
No matter how bad or how you fret
Have they crucified you yet ?

Oh my Lord , I see so clear
My mind so fogged , all that fear
Blind to the fact that You are near
That in my heart only You can peer .

My soul rejoices in pure relief
As Your love removes all grief .
“Devil “ I say “be gone you thief.”
I’ll start anew with Christ’s belief.

By Luke

I love the bottom line:

Great flow and even better wisdom
Reviewed by Andre Bendavi ben-YEHU 1/7/2006

This poem has a rhythmic flowing of wise words that leads the reader
to an enchanting spiritual prairie surrounded by trees of soul rivival and green boughs with ripe fruits of faith... It is a poetic
FLOWER scented with aromas of dignity, art, knowledge and wisdom.

I salute You, Poet!

May the Mother-Poet, – the author of this unique Poem, “You”, –
keep feeding the humanity of Your mind to nourish the eternity of your soul.

Drink the dews of happiness in the conclusion of your work.

In gratitude and reverent admiration.

Isn't is wonderful that God is like a coach. . . never playing the game but always knowing the rules of winning if we only listen.
