Enough: The Poem

Steve Skiver   -  

Enough

 

A Meditation for Lent

 

 

Thank you that was a wonderful meal

I have had enough

I left room for desert

One more lap

One more set

One more rep

Enough

I will be back tomorrow

I love you but

I have had enough

I plan to store up my wealth until

I have enough

I will tell my soul

Eat, drink, and be merry

Fool,

Your soul is demanded tonight

From the cross

“It is finished”

There he surrendered his spirit

Enough?

A spear pierced his side and

Blood and water poured out

His body taken down

Laid in the tomb

 My confusion and fear

Never enough

 

 

 

 

 

Trust the Promises,

Steve Skiver
