I was tagged in a Facebook Poetry Challenge by my cousin Imani Daniel. The rules are, write a new piece if youre tagged. You have to use one of my lines verbatim in your piece but it can be any topic, any length. God says all things in my time With which I would be fine If there werent all this time in my things These wrinkles in my dreams now And the expiration on inspiration is real A bent, browning edge on a wish I wonder, as I get older What was the name of my purpose again? I know it Dont tell me Its right on the tip of my... Lost it. Lose it often. This time, wandering in a reflection A familiar face I say You remind me of myself when I was younger Less distracted When my statements were resolute and less redacted But see with the passing of time I worry My faith is the only thing younger than I want it I worry it should be older I should trust stronger I should know better Should remember...something About Lord and limits Finite minds Right time for harvest Locusts and canker worms and thankfulness Pieces in a puzzle that didnt used to frustrate me so much There is SO. MUCH. TIME. God says I know And all of it is mine. So sink into the soil In all of the places I have planted you Cry if you must Until latter rain falls on settled dust All must journey to this thing called trust Run, but faint not Because time is mine And you...are mine And neither will pass Until all thats inside Is seen John Barlatier Cassandra Murray Matt Strange Jada Allred...get to it!
