Abraham And Isaac Sonnet Poem by Midifo Yearns

Abraham And Isaac Sonnet



What a journey, what a chore. What a pain and open sore
Heavy steps and silent weight; heavy heart in labored rate
Pictures flashing through the mind break the seal to open door
To insight of a parent’s wait, the challenge on each parent’s plate
Let go of child, beloved one, surrender precious only son
And in the process lead that child to be a man of courage mild
An adult who with race well run can sacrifice and bring the sum
Of all that he in heap has piled, dreams both calm and truly wild
To give beyond his selfish will and trust the love of parent still
This surely is the message caught within a heart so deeply taught
by faith that trusts a greater will, that does not ever wish to kill
but walks each step as he does ought, knowing that the peace he sought
will filter through and find a way to mould our lives and fill life’s cup
These men of God have taught us much of parenting and growing up.
