Five Minute Friday: My Steady, A Poem

 

Steady is even, unextreme

Crawling out of bitterness screaming

Dragging through depression, you seem

Half-dead, life out-of-sync, like in a dream

Someone dies, and steady is turned upside down

Everything you thought, felt and held onto

Gone, evaporated, never to retrieve or own

Give me a steady firm ground in faith

Unshaken, unstirred by storms and the wait

On His feet I stand, a girl dancing with her dad

Abide, realize steady lives inside

Thank you for visiting!  Each Friday, I will write for 5 minutes on the given word. Today’s word is steady. If you wonder about writing, this is a great way to start. A small yet daring step. Here is the link to follow if you want to join:
