Missed Appointments

---

Found this poem (here)..a timely  reminder to me....
*****************


YOU show more concern for me than any doctor, I must sayCos You want to see me so many times in just one day
Afterall – it’s You who looks after the health of the soulSomething that the most learned specialist in the world can only ever dream to control
I spiff up in my best for every job interviewSo why procrastinate to purify myself for my meeting with YouAfterall – they are interviews into Jannah, true?
What about meeting the queen or a celebrity singing tween?Definitley count me in!
I can go to a pro to sort out the stuff I don’t like about me :
* Personal Trainer* Beautician* Dietician* Debt Councillor* Even a Shrink
…At a nominal fee
Every cent worth it … really?
But
Why is it so difficult for me to pour out all my

~ sorrows,~ pains,~ dreams
and
~ hopes to You
Afterall – it is for free?
And
Should I happen to miss
* a train,* plane,* party,* an appointment,* movie date
How would I feel?Definitely more than a smidge irate,
Miss a fixed appointment with You?With a set time, date, place?What a disgrace!
Forgive me for standing You up so many times!Surely this must be the worst of crimes
Considering it’s me that needs You even though sometimes I am so short sighted this I can’t even see
By now even my own blood would have given up on me
But
You just keep bestowing blessings on me!
Ya Ghafuru,
Please hold on to me!
