Fast Aid


Someone’s always watching me,
Or racing to beat me.
It seems they can’t live without me!
In the morning I wake them
When they tell me to,
Yet then they often get angry
And hit me!
People are always saying I move too fast,
Yet if I stop, they get upset!
I really don’t understand the logic of it all,
But then, I’m just a clock!

Angry
Rude words spoken
Close friendship embittered
Relationship destroyed hastily
Hearts wounded
Cinquain

Treated unfairly.
Rude words spoken.
Things untrue blasted.
Feelings wounded.
My spirit angry.
Head bowed low.
Reminded of the Armor.
I read the word.
I pray in the Spirit.
My shield of Faith goes up.
I stand firm in shoes of Peace.
The enemy retreats…
