Each day
Above us loom
Clouds of uncertainty
Attempting to blanket our hope
We sigh,
And then,
We see the sun, our smiling friend,
Appear, chasing the clouds,
Restoring hope,
And life

An angel left us
Silently, went to heaven
Christmas Eve morn.
Fifteen years of her friendship
Remains in our memories.

Happy Thanksgiving and Blessings to all of you!

Encouraging you to be your best
Nudging you to grow and
Do better, while enjoying who you are now

In the sun and rain
Just you and me my friend
Together we stand

“A friend is one of the nicest things you can have, and one of the best things you can be.” —Douglas Pagels
Come follow me, I’ll never leave you
I’ll show you all the things you must do
To win life’s battles against your foe
And gain victory no matter where you go
You’ll be more than a conqueror, it tis true
Your enemies will always pursue
But them you’ll always mightily subdue
Together them we’ll overthrow
Come follow me
You’ll never be alone, for it’ll be us two
I’ll lead and guide and bring you through
In every challenge you’ll conquer and grow
Power and victory you’ll always bestow
Everyday I’ll give you victories anew!
Come follow me

#OctPoWriMo Day 6
Theme: Conquered
Word Prompts: worth the fight
victory, battle, forever, together
Suggested poetry type: Rondeau
Have you ever been told “No!”
Stopped when you wanted to go
Denied passage within
Rejected for the color of your skin
Refuted for something you’ve said
Sought friendship but were scorned instead
Vetoed for taking a stand
Mocked for the goals you’ve planned
Nothing but bills in the mail
Everything you try seems to fail
You’re not alone my friend
I’ve gone round and round that bend
Someday our ships will come in
Someday it’ll be our turn to win!
Rhyme
“Never, Ever, Give Up!”

A Brother who sticks close
A Savior who died for me

The Way, Truth, Life
Redeemer of my soul
The Wisdom and Power of God

Scripture fulfilled
Imputation was given
Abraham believed
Righteousness was bestowed
He was called “Friend of God”

And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God. James 2:23
