Poetry: Middle Ground in Creative Writing

“Middle Ground”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We strive for excellence
Yet sit solemn, unmatched.
Forever daunting ministries
With talents unhatched.

Open hands of grace to thee
In speculation of our past.
Will open eyes of generocity
With hopes that ever last.

Versing rhymes of joy and glee
We bake our inner wrath.
In finding, too late, that we
Will corner our own path.
