Alliterations About Life and its Losses

Sometimes life simply limps along

Its laugh-lines lost to sorrow's skin

Bare-naked breath strips lips of song

While wishes wash heart-worlds within

Sometimes Want’s woe of letting go

Fractures fulcrums of fantasy

And we are left, broken, bereft

Beggars of God’s gracious mercy

Ethereal emptiness can fill

The heart with hurt, but Hope will heal

Sometimes life simply limps along

While we await Abba’s appeal

I hope you have a Happy-heart Saturday.

Please pray for my Uncle Abner as he adjusts to life without his wife Almeda. These are hard days for him...

He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds. Ps. 147:3
