SHE FOUND GRACE FOR DESPAIR

Christmas morning,
She awoke,
Still the bruise,
Found upon her throat,

Eyes full of pain,
Tears falling like rain,

How could this ,
Have happened again,

The children have fear,
Their lives are evaded,

With this darkness,
Of pain and Sorrow,

She has tried all other solutions,
Still through out the confussion,

There is no hope,
For a brighter tomorrow,

Blessed are the weak in spirit,
For theirs is the kindom of heaven,

And she looked up,
and as she laid,

She held her hands together,
Then she prayed,

God, he took all the pain away,
She had received Christ Jesus,
That day,

Through all the pain and suffering,
Through Tears without care,

She had found grace for her despair.

A beautiful piece. The sorrow, pain and then the peace are expertly shown.

Thanks hoot, Denise, sun, watcher, and free!

This poem was written for all the abused women and children in the world. I feel their pain and sorrow. We need to be a friend and reach out in love to help these women and children.
