Poetry: A girl I know

INTEGRITY

My oldest friend, she will not fudge,
Not disconnect, pretend, misjudge.
Duplicity, it has no place
Her highest plea, to live by grace.

Securely plugged into the Source,
She waits; the Master charts the course.
As Jesus holds the power cords,
This woman's work, he fuels, rewards.

Though storms of stress, in crowded rage
May clatter, crash, to disengage,
No breach of confidence or myth,
Nor necessary ill forthwith

May daunt this darer from her goal,
For she is sure He holds her soul.
His Word is tucked inside her heart
With wondered wisdom to impart.

    But she's accepting of her fate.
    Her hair is thinning, her neck shows age
    And yet she shows

    I want to draw you while you smoke

    You look so beautiful, lost in thought, your wrist bent at such an angle, smoke

    by M.R Vavala

    In the mirror, she looks back,
    A girl I used to know...

    Yet her face is aged and weathered.
    Her brow is permanantly down.
