Faith Kept
Lawrence S. Pertillar 1947 (Connecticut)
Faith kept to trust,
As a must to keep hoping.
Prayers to do done on a daily basis,
Strengthens a peace of mind.
Sometimes not recognized,
By others who show it shown...
A disrespecting of this from time to time.
With a doing to undermine,
What to them had not been given.
And it takes tolerance and patience,
To understand and comprehend.
None of our paths to experience,
Are seldom in the same direction taken.
With similar and familiar challenges to face.
Yet we all seem to arrive eventually,
At that place to embrace it.
Consciously awakened to witness and see,
A destiny reached to observe it witnessed.
Leaving behind all that had been disbelieved.
About truth and its reality.
No longer to argue but together agree,
Time to waste unnecessarily...
Was necessary enough to open up our eyes.
So wide is the sky.
Unlimited by restrictions followed to imitate.
So unending,
Are the possibilities in our minds to us given.
With a faith kept trusting in God we must!
