ROCK A BYE CHRISTIAN

by linzy bruno  
3/21/2023 / Poetry

 

Rock a bye baby,

all the day through;

rocking away in her chair,

was all mom had to do.

 

But no longer a wee babe,

I confront rest, like a knife

and wrestle with favor:

to crush struggles impeding life.

 

Still battling with eyes open;

I toss in my bed;

rest always eludes me,

when sabotage,

I do dread.

 

Then I turn

and seek God.

He stretches out His Long Arm;

He pulls me in closer

and wins me over with Charm.

 

My concern? It evaporates,

like dew from the grass,

and He holds me

and rocks me,

and I fall asleep fast!

 

Rock a bye Christian,

all the night long;

submitting to Him,

turns around

everything that’s wrong.

 

Rock a bye Christian,

these words say it all;

taking comfort in His Care,

with great thanks,

as I fall……
