SOMETIMES HALLELUJAH…(©Peter Sprenkeler)
Sometimes life can leave you bereft,
Sometimes it seems no reason is left,
Sometimes within every facet lies a cleft,
Sometimes in hope you will call hallelujah.
Sometimes relationships strain and fail,
Sometimes injustices constantly assail,
Sometimes strengths seem so frail,
Sometimes in pain you will cry hallelujah.
Sometimes all values will seem so cheap,
Sometimes promises are so hard to keep,
Sometimes small inclines seem so steep,
Sometimes for help you will plead hallelujah.
Sometimes a friend your trust will betray,
Sometimes with urgencies there is always delay,
Sometimes you won't please despite what you say,
Sometimes in frustration you will sob hallelujah.
Sometimes in the din a small voice will calm,
Sometimes for all suffering it will be a balm,
Sometimes all anger it will completely disarm,
Sometimes we must listen when it says…"forgive all harm"…
And in serenity…sing hallelujah.

Dear Pete, This is the first one of your poems I've read. I'm a fan already. This poem is so skillfully written... and... you show a gift of spiritual insight. More power to you. Bizzy |
