Sinking Sand and stepping stones

Sinking Sand and stepping stones

It's not like we plan for it

It's not like we can avoid it

Down the drain we go

Life become a trap with no way to go

Except downwards

like sinking sands

We hope for any kind of help

We cry out to the never ending sky

Holding on to our faith

Waiting for that answer and opportunity

Raising us from shame and pain

Ā like stepping stones

Hi Tony, thanks for dropping by. Yeah, we have different languages and we all call upon God differently but refer to the same power being. Thanks a lot. Lots of love and hugs. Cheers.

Hi Cleo

I enjoyed the reality and simplicity of this poem that speaks to thatĀ most human beings are faced with pains/issues in life and how they approach by turning to God as the pillar of strength. (your stepping stone) - great write
