Yo-yo Emotions
I started writing poems after being inspired by Maureen LeLacheur in my freshman English class at Detroit Bible College. I wrote at least 20 poems in college, and most were written when I was upset and trying to sort out what was what. I have written a few since then too, and I suppose I’ll be presenting them in no particular order. This was written in September 1983, which happened to be a really low point in our married life. I don’t mind admitting that because I think that all marriages have their ups and downs. It definitely got better. 🙂
Yo-Yo Emotions
By, Sharon L. Bratcher
Filled with sadness,
Filled with joy–
Back and forth emotion flows
Plunged to depths
Of deep despair;
Raised up high, it onward goes.
All too human thoughts weigh down
Godly thoughts make highs of lows.
