Shadow-Boxing ~Marge Tindal~ 1999 He feigns to the left. He leads with his right. He's shadow-boxing with all his might. Fighting only with himself. Seeing not the true enemy. Shadow boxing for all eternity. Take off the gloves. Turn your face so you'll see just who, the enemy in the mirror is, that looks back at you. Only when you're ready to give up the fight, will your life be filled with love of others who also may be right. We spend too much time shadow boxing in sin, looking for demons that dwell within. Throw in the towel, on your knees repent. Then you will wonder where the shadows went. The referee is God. And He scores the round. You'll lose the fight until Him you've found. When the fight is over, victory can be found, on bended knee with God around. ------------------ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Thanks to each of you for your thoughtfulness. I hung up the gloves a while back and now wear the Champ's belt. God's in my corner. ------------------ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |
