Turbulent Times (Fresh Corn)

Turbulent times

Feel like restless crimes

A storm is coming

The moving wind chimes

Test my patience

 

I am waiting for a tide turn

My soul is worn

No crops lasting

Maybe except for the corn

Thank goodness for that

 

Life give me liberty and grace

I miss my deceased loved one’s face

His divine wisdom is accurate

Even when my love I displace

He is standing there with fresh maize

      That’s right. This poem is about missing my grandfather. He was full of such light and love! And I know that he’s in heaven right now and he wants me to prosper! 🙂
