The Atty's Poem Collection (2012)
By Fox-Trot-9(5) Hymn: True Compassion
Let the day I was born be destroyed, and the night it was said, 'A boy is born!'
—Job 3:3Before amazing grace restores
Belief in just and loving God,
That in the final triumph roars
Salvation's longest loudest laud;Before the time can make amends
With dreamless dreams in soothing night,
In which the tribulation ends
When you behold the hopeful light;Before the unforgiving hour
Begins to ease and fade away,
And all the bitter tears devour
The poison of the tragic day;Before the invocations of
The rosary can stem the grief
Of losing someone that you love
To circumstance's wailing chief;Before improving, it gets worse
Until it gets to be the worst;
So let him cry and let him curse
And let the man be human first.(c) Len D.
