UNFETTERED

God measures time for us as good unfolds,And He reveals and governs all our way.

HIS GIFT

As children will, first time to circus brought,Believe themselves in present paradise,Dazzle from splendor out of shoddy wrought,Find quintessential truth in barkers' lies,

AT A CHURCH MEETING

The day was gray, my heart was sad.
