2nd Wake Up Call by Wanda Kiel-Rapana
Dark thoughts enter uninvited,
..yawning with disdain
Nonchalantly settle in
to gate keep once again
Once again the challenge enters,
like it did before..
Once again I’m unprepared
for that knock on the door
Not much one can do about it
but look on and sigh;
Hoping that a miracle
may drop out of the sky
No-one’s bullet proof
no matter what the expert says
Many of us know those bullets
come in many ways..
I like to get on with life
– not worry what might be
There is always someone else
who’s much worse off than me
Faith keeps those who keep the faith
be focused and you’ll see
Friends will help to carry you
through great adversity
Strategy I use when
contemplating what to do..
Not the only one but it’s
the stronger one of two..
Open up my computer
let inspiration flow
Into my world of poetry
I confidently go..
Nothing is impossible
when I am in that zone
I can see forever
with my friends or on my own
All I need is keep the faith
inside me every day.
Faith, my friends, my poetry
help take the dark away..
