tie
   your
      troubles
        to
          helium
            balloons
              and
                let
                  them
                     go

A fawn

   sprinting south away from
        a cyclist pedaling south

    A fox slyly
leaks out from the
     roadside brush
in an attempt to
       cross the road
from west to east
   but his timing is off and heads back to the brush.

       A woman in nurse's attire jogs   north quickly, to get to her bus stop for the bus I see in my rearview mirror driving north towards her.
   She makes it.

  Driving south on union road before
   the walden avenue intersection a cute
  racoon lies prone
in the middle of the road facing south....
       that little fella
didn't make it.

Life...

    hmmm..

where do I begin ?

      Where.... oh -

where do I end ?

           It's joy

  It's pain

              It's a blend.

     Sometimes a bully....

          life can be.

                Never back down  -

Stand up to it fully.

                Don't quench the Holy spirit

       Fan it like a flame -

           Let it burn inside you

     Never allow it forget your name.

                Life is hard when one is down

          But if given to Him -

     Your sadness can be overcome

He will lift you up from enemies ground.

        Trials ...

              Life altering -

Life changing scars upon your mind

         upon a heart that's faltering.

          Nothing is more powerful than Him

     Not you....

              Not even the enemy

With Him, so many lives everyday newly begin.

           When life has you at the brink

         Don't sin....

                  Give in -

Give in and give it to Him.
