ANSWERED PRAYERS

I asked for sunshine
Instead came rain
Then seeds sprouted 
and flowers bloomed.


I asked for merry voices
I heard silence
and listened to the
whisper of my soul.


I asked for joy
I lived sorrow
and lo! My heart
became tender and strong.

    Isn't it amazing how we get what we ask for, but not always in the way we expect. Great post!
