My Ingredients

I am a vast field of disappointments;
a single bud of hopes.
I am a handful of accomplishments;
a bucket full of failures.
I am a river made from tears;
a puddle made from laughs.
I am a page written with quirks;
a sentence written with grace.
I am a heart bursting with dreams;
a head of stifling excuses.
I am a line of a happy melody;
a story of a melancholy ballad.

Very nice, Kristi. Great to see you posting again.

Kristi,

You are the same as me. I am more of a mess than anything. Romans 5:20 is my verse, and I don't use it as a license to sin but a license from sin. "Where sin abounds, grace abounds much more". And sin tends to abound in my life way more than I wish it would. But Gods grace abounds so much more and His wonderful grace is changing me.

That was a very good poem. How have you been?

Bill
