ExodusDriven away by hopelessness A struggle to clear up the mess Nothing prevails a raging storm If roots are infested with worm Love endures if nurtured to last Over turmoils was blown to dust Courage to keep the vines alive A lone branch besought the sky Reached up for the dew to survive Mercy, justice the constant cry Ensnared by the devil's leeching grip Nothing left to do but escape In distress we fled in haste Rescued by heaven's constant grace Even sinners who repent are blessed Now this soul has found its fortress Elusive but at last I found my rest Restoring the ruins is a must Against all odds with God to trust Vines once strangled are freed at last In my heart memories are kept Never your names be erased Among kin you'll always be missed. DANILO (Carmen Irene - wife) RAVINA July 22, 1958 Brother-in-Law, 1st Marriage (Acrostic poetry... names of people who are/were part of my existence (family, friends, acquaintance) for my Memoirs - `Love of My Life`...) 02/14/2010 Poetry Ad-Free Upgrades Vote for this poem
