The Trial

Michael C McAdoo 1974 (Phoenix Az)

Feeling forsaken, Health, identity, life lesson unknown.

Forgiven, loved, protected, for me un-shown.

Destitute, alone, wanting, thought to be redeemed.

Kindness, understanding, comfort, continue to remain unseen.

Begging, pleading, praying on bended knee.

Unsure, unanswered, no mercy given me.

Faith fading, test remaining, enemy fought, Job I am not.

Michael C McAdoo
