Irresistible Distractions

I get distracted by all the hate talk

I take it not personally it is irresistible

But then God touched me on the shoulder

And whispered in my ear that

“You are Love” and I love you

So, I opened my eyes and saw you

as my beautiful distraction;

You are beautiful, and irresistible!

We disagree but we need not hate!

So, come closer and we shall talk

Perhaps we can be friends. . .

We come from different worlds

Perhaps even different planets

Only God knows

But who cares – we certainly don’t

We’ll just share table, drink coffee, talk

People don’t do that anymore – talk

I guess they’re too busy chasing egos

I was in that profession for years

Then God taught me to be a teacher

God knows. . . She knows better than I do

Now, when I think that I have learned

God slows me down, sometimes stops me cold

For twenty-five years I learned from the young

And blesses me by bringing me you

To distract me and bring me back to real life

To sit, talk, and drink coffee.
