SOMETIME FAR FROM NOW By R.L.Huffstutter

THERE

WAS

A TIME

WHEN

I WAS LEFT

ALMOST

BREATHLESS

THERE WAS A TIME WHEN I WAS LEFT ALMOST BREATHLESS


I once wandered through


streets where Jesus bade me to stay


and dine, where others who were


transients like me, wondering


about life's meaning, remained long


after I left the shadows and


returned to the sunshine.

There was no guaranteed certificate or membership where I found warmth and light,

the living waters from the deep blessed my mind and soul, kept me safe, kept my sanity

through times of peril and times of strife. It was a walk along the beach where I found

the wisdom sealed within my heart and mind from times I can't recall but will remember

on some faraway beach sometime far from now.
