Tenderness

2/12/98

It's unlike this man to be tender.

So how can I be so?

All my flesh fought ceaselessly

and relished the plight of my foe.

So again I raise the question,

How can I be so?

I have toiled and labored so often in vain,

I'm surprised I'm starting to know,

that God makes miraculous changes,

causing the desert to grow.

Giving me hope where there only was pain,

and filling my heart with love once again.

So I have answered my question,

How can this be so?

I know!
