Poetry
The fog rolled in overnight,
And was obscuring my sight;
Making driving really intense,
Since it was extremely dense.
But I still continued to drive,
With hopes on staying alive;
As other drivers to take care,
On the highway for to share.
It was hard enough to see,
Fifty meters in front of me;
Just barely to see the lines,
Too hazy in seeing the signs.
Scarcely seeing lights ahead,
Brightly flashing blue and red;
Turns out to be an accident,
I am not feeling too confident.
I firmly grab the steering wheel,
As I pray to God with much zeal;
Protect me as I drive on the road,
Returning safely to my abode.

Richard, my friend, this is a very good poem, and I delighted in reading it. I could see the fog in my mind, even the flashing lights warning of the accident. But most of all, I could feel the prayer of the driver as he petitioned God for safety. May God bless you for sharing a wonderful example of how we should lean on God for our concerns. Thomas
