FRUSTRATION IS OVER
As trouble crawled into my bed
I crawled out warning it to
Cross me off its list of victims
As trouble ran after me
I ran faster to elude it
Running away from all the fears
And uncertainty in my life
Preventing it from turning
The furnishings of my life
Into dismal heaps
As trouble tried to embrace me
Hope chased ridiculous
Fears away making
Uncertainty and helplessness
Strangers to my nature
As trouble tried to kiss me
The sun left the sky as
Florence Nightingale with iodine
Came to rest beside me
Healing my wounded hopes
As disgrace pursued me
I plucked up courage and
Put up with my circumstances
With humility and fortitude
As trouble lay in the dust
I took myself in my hands
And hugged myself with
Satisfaction. I laughed.
Feeling happy about something
That once hurt so much
It’s time to celebrate
The nasty rough
ride is over.
Done.
