Hearing the Word
by Richard L. Provencher

Faith dressed up
in words from the pulpit
leaped across faces
seeking truth
and forgiveness

silent thoughts
reflecting possibilities.

Will the Lord truly help our
children change?
a couple dares to think.

Hope is eternal says
the Pastor as
if reading their thoughts.

Man and wife
continue in blessed prayer.

Stop that! one child shouts.
Mom hes pinching me
the other whines.

Help us make it through
another day
is a parental wish.
