A Guest Writer

  These past few days have been very difficult for me emotionally . I find writing extremely difficult . Today , I want to share with you a guest writer by the name of Maureen Carroll Sebek . Not only is she a fellow blogger but a dear friend . I don't think she will mind . Please enjoy her latest titled  " Buried Alive " .

"Then Jesus called out in a loud voice - Lazarus come out... And Jesus said to them, "Take off the grave clothes and let him go." John 11:43,44

She wouldn't stop talking

Always laughing, full of joy

She looked at life with brand new eyes

And loved everything she saw

She didn't see that no-one cared

We ran the other way

She made us think of a life

We swore no one could have

She made us angry just to look at her

We spit and cursed at her

That was all that we could say

She never walked she always danced

She sang songs and twirled around

Every chance she got

Who did she think she was

Something special to be treasured

or what

I couldn't find a way to end her

I Ignored her

Mocked her

Pushed her deep inside

She was just an irritating constant bother child

I thought that she would go away

When I buried her alive

But, Someone saw her

Heard her cry

Answered her every why

He pulled her from the grave

He breathed new life in her

And called her by her name

Loving, caressing, healing all her wounds

He lifted her and smiled on her

And refused to let her go

He loved her, me, her, I mean

He saved us both I know

He treasured the woman who hid

the darling child inside

The one that I had thrown away

The one I buried alive...
