Drought


dry fields
burn, sagging trees
turn a sickly yellow
all my flowers mortally yearn
for waters that will resurrect their lives:
Through no fault of their own they wilt
totally free of guilt...
Blessed rains came ~
They lived!
I, too,
thirsted for more
I turned away and slid
sadly, sickly, limp to the floor;
Needing nourishment for my diseased Soul
Through my fault.  By His blessed waters
I asked forgiveness.
Christ is Risen!
I am Redeemed.

by Panne

Happy Easter to All!!


I have tried to enter a line break repeatedly in here but it will not accept it - there should be a double space before beginning the 2nd verse after I Lived! Skip 2 spaces and then I, too, - don't know why I'm having problems... maybe one of you can help me with that


Please ask for permission before you copy my work to your files or a greeting card.  Thank you. Panne
