“The Click In The Night”
The click had come while most had slept;
Perhaps it’s time-zones shifting West,
But maybe not – perhaps it shows
Some hungered heart few people know.The YouTube piece showed what was said;
Accessed while others lay their heads
Upon their pillows, rest assured,
But elsewhere someone was allured –By hope this time they’d see some way
To carry on amidst the fray;
Had they’d been tipped off by some friend –
“Watch this, if you want pain to end”?Who knows? For actions in the night
Abound in Adam’s world – not right,
And painful to the touch of man,
Or woman, with frustrated ‘can’.Lord, as I rose from bed of rest
First thought? “Some aspect’s now addressed;
Meanwhile we sleep – how great is that?!”
Then I recalled – “This help line’s tapped”.Lord, bless these words You had me say,
And all the rest just blow away,
Lest they confuse, lead folks astray;
Grace me to carry on today.For even (or especially)
As I walk on, I’ve come to see
Allure for me – as if I’d made
That person’s gift ’neath you’ll-tree laid.If You’d not helped these eyes to see;
If Stan had not let pinwheel be;
What help would I have been in sleep
When someone’s server vigil keeps?Thanks Lord for this.
