Monday Morning Surprise (at factory)
- February 04, 2023
I wonder at sun-up
Will this be the day?
A new friend met.
A sweet scene set.
Some word of Divine origin.
The job is slow.
All tricks I know
The factory lights
seem so dim.
The coffee shop
Good place to stop.
One waitress likes
To joke some.
She makes me laugh
Just fancy that
It seems to stop the boredom
Ten minutes, Clock.
Some silly talk of
How we spent the weekend.
Kids’ hockey teams.
A movie night
Or in laws for
A feasting.
Then one Guy perks
If after we work
A coffee to be sharing?
To ask me calm
With healing balm
Christ Jesus, are you wearing?
Yes He it seems
Has all your dreams
So tell me Doug.
None sparing.
Your Testament
Your kindness lent.
An end to my despairing?
(Good time to read Second Letter of Peter, Chapter three.)
