ORIGINAL WORK # 1
‘THE LONG-AWAITED DAY’
A filthy garment she always wore,
Nothing to boast, not even a coin
Through muddy paths this lady trudged,
Dreamt of a life where sorrows are
gone
Tears would flow from those lovely
eyes,
Like a stream of water these diamonds
slipped by
Hope was as flimsy as a needle could
be,
When would a banquet invite her to
feast?
One day, as she held a hefty jar of
clay,
A good-looking man approached and
made the day
He wore a royal robe with a majestic
crest on his head,
“What brought you here, Your
Highness?” she said.
She never knew that love had won her
How impossible a prince would fell in
love with a pauper?
Though rugged she looked, he said,
“You’re beautiful”
More than a fairy tale story this
romantic moment did befall!
The time had come for the Bridegroom
to unite with the Bride,
At all turns he never left her side
Though she’s undeserving and bore the
stench of her history,
This weary woman is not the bride
that he sees
Remember the day when God left the
splendor of Heaven
Oh, how can it be that the King would
die for men?
Amidst guilt and shame that all of us
bear,
He shall clothe us with white robes
to proclaim we are His forever!
