Breath And Faith Depth Poem by John Sensele

Soldier on despite the flak
You silence with skill
Giving detractors slack
With plenty love armchair critics kill.

Soldier on when pesky problems
Your life confronts
Regardless of egregious emblems
That assail your travail from faceless fronts.

Sing with joy
Serve your community with diligence
Encouragement from God enjoy
As you deploy your intelligence

Fulfilling the pilgrimage
You undertake on Earth
No matter the magnitude and hue of the plumage
Hate injects in your breath and faith.
