Some Days – A Poem
Some days I want to believe
the Gospel is a myth
and this is all there is
But only some days
Some days I want to believe
it doesn’t matter whether
my loved ones know Christ
But only some days
Some days I want to believe
to eat, drink, and be merry
is all that matters in life
But only some days
Some days I want to believe
truth is relative, not absolute
and all paths lead to God
But only some days
and not today
I shared this today for dVerse Poets Pub Open Link Night.

We all have days like that….
There is another choice:
Where everything is not relative
Where there are choices
Choices we make that matter because we matter to each other
and the here-and-now are the kingdom
and then it all matters — making obscene the hopes for more
and making horrible the imagining that we alone are safe and snug
with our god, our own perfect beliefs.
And never on some days, but on all days.
yep…living by faith, seems tied to our emotions, so somedays…
Thanks for stopping by and commenting. Peace, Linda
i think we all have those moments, esp when we look at the world and what is rewarded by its rules…but that is only fleeting…smiles…
Wow Linda . ..this is going to be good, this special time of writing a poem offering each day. Thank you for this one . ..and God bless you!
