Call

when the clouds frown and
the stars smile not.
when the moon brings hopelessness and
the sun burns you up.
when the rains drown you and
the air becomes unbreathable.
when the shades of trees become unaccommodatin’ and
the earth grows thorns, pinching you here and there.
when the cat becomes hostile and nobody would talk to you.
just call on,
just call on Jesus.
