[title] => When DOES the Bad End?

[hometext] => I was compelled to write this now. The story of the little boy hit me so much. It’s not even just that story, but also so many like that. I guess I am just tired of the bad news.
For some reason the good news seems to get lost. My faith in Jesus is what keeps me going, even though at times, I do get emotional. It’s only human nature. But how far will it go? I mean Human nature is ok, as long as we know how to control the bad that is in all of us. So it just seems thats all there is on the news, and radio, even in the music, the bad lyrics, of the bad events here and in the world? It’s every day life any more. I can thank God for seeing some good; it’s the only way to survive anymore. The bad is winning here on earth, but remember this: SATAN you might think you’ve won here on EARTH, but when that time is near God will see to it, you will have actually lost. I know some of you may not see things this way. I am not asking you to believe, just open your minds to the thoughts. Thanks for letting me vent. [bodytext] => I don’t know where to begin Lord For there’s so much horrific activity going on This in our World, but here at home The news depicts more bad then good, but for how long? Wishing for it to go away, a cover of disappearing foam I know you brought me here to the city for a reason It has opened my eyes and mind But how long will I have to endure, there’s so much treason I work for the local government; at first it was great Now, I’m ashamed and hateful of this political kind It’s only been two years here I do love the river, and what I can of nature The History and old architecture is something to peer The Arts and museums are a mind feature But the everyday experience of my work, cannot deny The cases that go unnoticed, years gone by, without being touched To say the least of the recent activity, I know now, the government will lie I’m so grateful for the good I can see What you do allow, thru those dark enemies I know I cannot cure, help or even end all that distress For it has always been, allowed all that to digress Today, a twenty-three inch, four year old boy, died today His parents starved him, was only twenty pounds They have four beautiful healthy girls, who didn’t pay The price of their brother, he lived a life of no loving sounds The parents are not mental, just didn’t want him So, Lord, this is normal of what we hear daily, news like this? I know that child as others too, are in your care, fit and trim Having their Angel wings, the love and care, here on earth was missed. I know I cannot dwell on the bad news, there is good Just why is it so more prolific, to see the tragic? It appears that your word is being put under a hood The government and hate groups want Your Word to go like magic I know I must have Faith and Hope in YOU, God Your Son Jesus, gave his life for US Gave us his blood to wash ours and spare the Devils rod My heart is compelled to write this now For later I might feel anger and hate I know I must be forgiving; my emotions get clouded somehow Hearing and seeing all this tragic news, I look past that and pray That what I read in the Book Of Revelations, is our fate I do believe we’ve begun our demise to ourselves So I hope I am one you do take and not let me stay My Salvation has been yours awhile and is ready Knowing its not going into that hot place of Hells This I pray Lord, Who will come like a thief in the night Take me, my book of life I hope not too petty That I rejoice in YOUR great Kingdom of light Amber Rose Yeager – July 30, 2002 [comments] => 2 [counter] => 353 [topic] => 39 [informant] => rose [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Grief )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
