“Key to Victory” I`ve fought with you and stood my ground though many times I`ve been knocked down. Yet, I get up look you in the eye, you may pummel me but I will not die ! In younger days you`d intimidate, glaring at me with eyes of hate. Now again, we stand toe to toe: At last, I BELIEVE I can beat this foe ! For I know you now you don`t fight fair, you`re a barking dog that`s easily scared. Again, I say, “The key to win is not my strength but, my trust in Him !” A.B.Adams January 7th, 2021, Thursday
"Heart" Like a punching bag in a gym, kicked and punched again and again. Hanging there it has no choice, no arms or legs nor no voice. And as the fists, they do fly; it can not even cry. But, of this I am sure: it can and will and must endure. A.B.Adams November 13th, 2019 Wednesday
“The Final Round” It`s the final round you`ve been knocked down, time and again opponent closing in. Eye swollen shut your nose it bleeds, champion confident crowd on its feet. In your corner remember now, the One who`s trained you taught you how. So, just like you learned its duck and punch, one to the body then uppercut. But voices in and without, scream, “You`re going down, it`s your final bout !” Then, the bell it rings do not hesitate, victory is promised defeat not your fate. With this in mind do not cower, this is your fight your finest hour ! A.B.Adams October 18, 2020 Sunday
"Get Up"
"FINAL FIGHT" Behind the 8 ball, backed up against a wall. No longer running on my knees I`m crawling. Pinned against the ropes; enemy pummeling, me, I`m covering, losing all hope. Calsualties high, arrows they fly, so, with shield in hand, I make a final stand. And, through the smoke I do see, as I glimpse heavenly, a ray of light, shining down amidst the fight. Through darkened clouds this beam appears, reassuring me, calming all fears. And so I look up and away, knowing He has heard me pray and though the situation doth seem grim it does not sway my hope in Him. A.B.Adams October 24, 2019 Thursday
