My Mistake


A bump in the road,
I happened to trip.
Seeming so subtle,
But it made me slip.

A difference so slight
I just didn't see -
Gigantic mistake
It happened to be.

To turn back the time!
To take the move back.
The bump did avoid,
The trip did retrack.

The tears that I shed,
Achieve not a thing.
All that I can do
Is plead to the King.

That He can make right
The wrong that I've done:
Problem against me
Somehow be won.

But trusting in Him
Is all I can do.
I cling to this hope, 
And pray that it's true.

That what has been done
Can be as it should;
That all this through God
Can work out for good.

  1. A nicely written poem, about something that isn't nice to have happen. It captures the theme well. :)

  3. I'm glad you decided to act on Jonathan's idea, Bushy. :) *hugs tightly* I love the poem, it captures that feeling -- and the solution -- very well. :)

  6. I truly might have seen you on Gabriel's! Either his or Aubrey's... I'm pretty sure I've seen your comments both places come to think of it. :)
