The Lost Get Found
December fourteen was
supposed to be a great day.
The delayed report is
to be delivered,
The Christmas party
is to be enjoyed,
The smiles are to be
given and received,
The songs are to be
sung freely,
The games are to be
played child likely.
But something went
wrong – I forgot the battery of my digicam.
I didn’t care,
I trusted fate.
I know that the lost
will get found.
I didn’t know,
I ventured faith.
But something went
wrong – I still haven’t seen what I want to.
The impromptu party
started,
I even carried my
team into victory.
But the victory didn’t
carry with it my smile.
The curious case of
Kevin Tuazon seem to interest,
The furious phases of
time seem to suddenly sadden me.
But something went
wrong – the sun is setting; my mind is doubting.
I just wanted to be
alone.
But the taps at my
back,
The steps that
searched me,
The voices that
calmed me,
Said I should be, and
be still.
Then something went
right – my feet ran through the course.
On our way to another
party,
I didn’t know how to
get merry.
ALAS! Merry Christmas
means “MERRY? CHRIST MUST!”
The things I needed –
a battery, a charger, a hug.
The lost got found at
the moment I least expected.
Yes, some things went
right – overflow started, counter flow rejected.
More than what I
wanted,
There are things that
I needed.
They’re here in
abundance: “how come?” I ask.
I still don’t know
why,
But I know I am
loved.
O, how everything
went right – the lost, by believing, get found.
The delayed report was
delivered,
The Christmas party was
enjoyed,
The smiles were given
and received,
The songs were sang
freely,
The games were played
child likely,
The provisions proved
so mightily,
The hearts exposed so
clearly,
The sons came back so
needy,
The friendship found
so solidly,
The love is seen so
invisibly.
