To a Stranger Walking By

‘they’ tried to tell me my fidelity

could teach nothing of temptation

to one who has never experienced

the comparisons of another’s charms

which is why I’m happy where I am

but this morning, in Bible Study

looking out the window at the day

I saw you walking with your dog

and knew they were wrong

know full well temptation’s charm

am simply happy where I am

because I am there with the God

Who both saves and guides
