Array ( [sid] => 125864 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => CIRCUMSTANCE [time] => 2006-09-17 17:21:07 [hometext] => [bodytext] => How fair is she, this lady, to see
in bright youthfulness regaled.
Impatient too, in tasting the brew
of love's sweet nectar unassailed.

Yet, unfolding strife in everyday life
brings betrayal to dis-appoint.
Turns her dream into a shabby thing -
a drama in eerie dis-joint.

Straight and strong the man has grown,
industrious, fast and free.
He stands at the helm, to conquer his realm -
to triumph in his destiny.

Then, breaks the dawn and a muffled moan,
contention and trouble in tow.
He never foresaw comic fate's fall -
the specter of failure to show.

We scheme and plan, but not of our hand
lay life's future deciding power,
to hold in line circumstance and time -
as God does in the appointed hour.
*************
Daniel 4:35 "He (God) doeth his will in the army of
heaven and among the inhabitants of the earth
and none can stay his hand....."
John 16:33 "In the world ye shall have tribulation".

How fair is she, this lady, to see

Impatient too, in tasting the brew
of love's sweet nectar unassailed.

a drama in eerie dis-joint.

Straight and strong the man has grown,

He stands at the helm, to conquer his realm -
to triumph in his destiny.

Then, breaks the dawn and a muffled moan,
contention and trouble in tow.

Beautifully told. Whatever happens serves a good even as it hurts.
To teach us and to learn from the hurt and grow thereby.
Poignant and inspring.
