Tipping Day

The sun has slanted across the sky

thoughts scroll through my mind then fly

That precise sliver in time

 

The see-saw is tipping to the down side

I slam and am jolted by the sand in my eyes

Suddenly a week seems like a lifetime

 

I know I never really controlled my world

The lie in my head where I thought I was safe

but being found in Christ I am not forsaken.

 

 

 

One thought on “Tipping Day

  1. I’m thankful that I’m not in control of my life, Jill, otherwise it would continue to be a shambles. I’m glad God is in control. Smashing poem! D x
