Between Yesterday And Tomorrow

Author: cafetwo2010

In the summer of our youth
We knew only
tears and sorrow..
Always hoping
Always wishing~
Between Yesterday and Tomorrow
Mom and dad
were far away..
Left to strangers
to shape our way~
Cruel minds
with evil hearts..
Between Yesterday and Tomorrow
All the joys
we never had..
A loving mother
a consoling dad..
All those years
of crying out~
Between Yesterday and Tomorrow
Then little boys
turned to men..
And little girls
begin again~
To find a life
they never knew..
Between Yesterday and Tomorrow
And we look back
on those tumultuous
years..
Sometimes the laughter
mixed with tears~
And we remember God
Who
brought us through..
Between Yesterday..
and Tomorrow..

"And we remember the God who brought us through.."

God within, and without...

The Sacred knows of no other way, other than to Love us through, and through.

Ty for your sharing cafe ..

Many of us are thrown into a most cruel circumstance but thorough strength and determination, we do find redemption and salvation because we believe.

I know you've always mentioned your great belief in most of your writes, and I always felt that through your good spirits , many of us learned and became stronger because of your courage.

I continue to learn just reading your writes.

May you be blessed forever Jim.

Such a sad account of a man, who through all those tumultuous years has learned the art of loving and sharing love so well! His passing has dealt us, his devastated maidens, a heavy blow! So very kind of you, Lindsy, for bringing this one back to our attention.
