Wonder Should I Go Or Should I Stay



With a strong feeling of wondering should I go or should I stay
The sky charioted by dark clouds and in crept a feeling of dismay
Pitter, patter, and soon came the heavy sounds of the raindrops
Into the automatic car I stepped in, hoping safely to be dropped
While moving on they quickened and it was quite a down pour
Swiftly surrounded by pools of water the drive became rather slow
Then I found myself stationed for a few minutes and much more
Fear struck me looking around realized never seen, been here before
Headlights, streetlights, construction work is all my eyes could see
Lost and felt alone with a driver, his language that is alien to me
Looking for land marks in the darkness, to reach out for a hand
In silence I turned to the one Creator who surely will understand
The rains and the clogged roads stuck in the middle of the unknown
Then to my comfort I heard ‘love is a splendor thing’ from my phone
The voice of concern, the angels my daughter and friends who care
Spoke to me, directing the driver to move on to get out of this nightmare
Its past nine mum I hope you are alright I am with a worried mind
My friends remained on mobile with driver and me till my home I do find
Half past nine trembling I walked into my home with a sigh of relief
Exhausted, Mel gave me a drink of milk and could not help fell fast asleep
I wake up I find the household asleep, my husband and the net in full sway
Its half past one, I tell him call me to bed when he’s done for the day…
My eyelids droop for the second time in the day with confused memories
How many such as me sleep with the unexpected maybe worse off calamities?
