In The Ebbs And Tides Of Life… Poem by Dr John Celes

Life seems at times so disgusting,
Bereft of every charm;
I wonder for what I'm living,
In place where none is warm!

At times, I wish I change my job,
And work upon a farm;
In earthly life, I hate to sob,
But want to keep from harm.

In life, I feel I am misfit,
When comes often a storm;
But God has kept me always fit,
Bestowing me a calm.

Sometimes life wretched turns some more,
When hurt comes like a swarm
From people loved, through my heart's door -
‘I feel I'm in a qualm! '

Confused I flip the Bible's leaves,
In search of a soothing Psalm;
And Lo! My guardian angel weaves -
‘God's drawn you on His palm! '
