“Accepting That It Might Not Work” [A Series] ()
I heard her blurb from Oregon
About how battle was not won
With cancer in her hubby’s case;
So he died young – just slowed its pace.And how she doubled down on task
To find solutions – question asked?
“Why does this happen when we change
The negatives – it stays the same?Lord, in her words and actions now,
I heard fatigue – and wondered how
She’s making out – “Front-line fatigue.”
We all have felt – (pandemic’s seed?)O Lord, her kindness saved my life;
Her models helped push back the night;
Her quirky, forthright, joy in life,
Has carried me from dark to light.I did that once with “Cradle” disc –
Les said that they had almost slipped,
And lost their way – so many years
They’d labored, film brought victory near.So what about this, Lord? I ask –
What are you saying ’bout this task
I try to win at all these months –
Is all this destined for the dump?“Stu, it’s okay – for you as well –
Dale Bredesen’s pushed back that hell
For you and others – just like Les –
She’s come with help – all life to bless.“No, you’re not destined to dispose
Of help, unused, for, Goodness knows,
There’s plenty out there needing this –
Through photo-work, pass heaven’s kiss.Okay Lord, thanks for that.
