A fleeting thought ...

Proverbs 13:12 

12 Hope deferred makes the heart sick,
but a longing fulfilled is like a tree of life.

 

 

What can I say? An invitation to display my thoughts on the air

“A gift to play”, truly amazing for me to be with you up there

A fleeting thought forgotten by tomorrow. Maybe a seed will be planted

as freely bought with someone’s sorrow ... so it won’t completely slanted

 

Wintergreen in hibernation as deadness rules in “existing” lives

Could have been a quiet frustration in following orders from our wives

Children smile in life’s abundance. Why the need of growing up

to face trials in redundance and become tired of getting up?

 

For you and me daily chores to address the needs of folks like us

and to set free thought’s deeper voices changing minus toward plus

Just a smile and a word of hope ... for our own likely peers

A whisper to forget one’s reality as it appears for a moment here
