day 183

“For he has delivered me

         from every trouble,

   and my eye has looked in

         triumph on my

         enemies.”  Psalm 54:7

running down the street,

the bullies Worry and Fear

close at my heels, i

run faith first into you,

and you scoop me up

in your arms, like a little

child, and as we head

down the street to the

ice cream parlor, i look

back over your shoulder

at my tormentors,

and

give them a big wink
