Winds Of Change Poem by Macy (Nina) Dvirnak

Winds Of Change



I was enjoying a picnic,
When the wind came up.
It blew my napkin,
And rolled my cup.

It ruined the nice place
That I had set,

However, there's one thing
I'll never forget-

The wind switched direction,
And flipped my plate.

Yes, the wind slapped it,
Twice in my face!

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
This poem is written about the time me and my cousins were at the cabin, and decided to eat lunch outside. It was a little breezy that day, and the wind came in spurts. I had been in the middle of holding my dining supplies down, meanwhile bragging to my cousins about my superior control over my cup, napkin and plate. Then it happened- I wasn't paying attention, SPLAT! Right in my face! Not once, but two times! It was as if God was holding my styrofoam plate, and doing it with a humorous smile on His face, to pay for my boastfulness. I tell you what, my cousins and I Laughed so hard, we just about fell off our seats! It was funny, but it also held a very important life lesson- DO NOT BOAST!

1 Corinthians 1: 31
' Therefore, as it is written: 'Let him who boasts, boast in the Lord'.'

Note: The book of 1st & 2nd Corinthians is good scripture to read, if you are to be taught important life lessons.
