True Story in a Really Bad Poem

I was going through my archives and found this little ditty that I had never published. After reading it, you'll see why, LOL!  I guess now I'm braver . . .or want to give you all a good laugh.

The trip that almost wasn’t was a sad day indeed

For my hubby who works so hard all year, needed to be freed

 

Down the road we were to go

But something said, “Oh no, it won’t be so.”

 

Our car’s radiator fan and air went out

My tired, tired husband just wanted to shout.

 

Later, hubby said, “Let’s go for a walk to the pond

A place of which I am very fond

 

We sat down looking over the water

Hubby took my hand and prayed

Children of the King

He looking down on His son, His daughter

 

We took our situation and placed it in His hands

For there is no better place to lay down our plans

 

The wife had such dread about this trip, she could not explain

The bad dreams she had the week before happened again and again.

 

When the car broke down just the night before the trip

Wife bowed her head and gave a most grateful “thank you”

For her Savior still guiding their ship

 

We could have been stuck out on the highway in a broken down car

But the Lord knew our situation and saved the day.

You see, He really is close, He is not far.

 

As bad as we wanted to see our Oklahoma family, we gave it to the Lord

The enemy did not like this, he went up against the mighty sword.

 

Even though the trip was delayed a week, he did not win this one

We went to the Lord and humbled ourselves, and then we took a stand

And watched the circumstances unfold by our Father’s mighty hand

 

Vacation time was rescheduled, the car was fixed and did not break the bank

The trip that seemed would not be, is on again

Glory be, thank the Lord God Almighty

 

Was the Lord saving us from some tragedy

Wouldn’t that be just like His majesty

 

Some would say it’s just the happenings of life, to this I could agree

Because my life giver is in charge of mine, I let the reigns go for Him to hold

I’m just on this little earth, I am nearsighted

But my Heavenly Father sits on the mountaintop and forever He sees

 

As I go down the highway, I’ll be thanking Him for His perfect timing, His loving ways, and His watchful eye

I’m off now to get ready once again

For now I say “Good-bye”

Even though this is BAD, I think there is a message here. . .did you see it through all the bad writing?
  

Don't worry. . .I'll never enter a poetry contest :)

~Blessings to you as you look to Him~
