I Hang These Petitions
by Richard L. Provencher

in the wind
for You to understand the loss
I feel -- experiences gone astray,
promises unfulfilled
and best intentions masked
as excuses among forgotten dreams.

I know He cares for me, sustains me
and I do remember days of momma
crying and saying, "Keep the Lord
in your heart," and I strive to do so.

(c) 2016 Richard L. Provencher

Richard enjoys writing poems; many of which have been published in Print and Online. He and his wife, Esther are also co-authors of stories and a print novel. They are "born again" Christians and very busy in their church, Abundant Life Victory International, in Bible Hill, Nova Scotia.
