When the ends don't meet and the wallet is draining.
When the bank's been calling, complaining.
When the kids need shoes and we dine on broken dishes.
Jesus, stretch our pennies, bread and fishes.

A Poem For A Frame
Tattering plaster. Left out in the rain. Too grand for good use. A castaway frame.
Profile embossed. Its charm. Its appeal. Held a portrait? A mirror? Their absence conceal.
Found by the road. Hung on nails in the sky. Holding one final masterwork. My family and I.
Thank you for the wonderful picture and really inspiring poem. I finally get to see your blog. I'm not sure why it takes so long to reach me here at Kaiser. I love you son and pray God's best for you and your precious family.
