Time to Contemplate

30 July 2000


All dressed up and nowhere to go
left with justice to show
Ahead the good times to have
with such an opportunity to grab

All prepared for the next step
and an appointment kept
With time the enemy held adverse
and much time to rehearse

All ready for satisfaction
but halfway an obvious infraction
Left alone to await the day
and a period open to pray

All not being enough
because the road remains tough
This burden one to overtake
and a heart venerable to break


“And I say unto thee, That thou art Peter, and
upon this rock I will build my church;and
the gates of hellshall not prevail against it.”
Matthew 16: 18 KJV
