Without Grace

sorenbarrett

With Faith I struggled and after her death
I encountered Hope, who had lived close by
Hope was thin, grew old, then passed away
Chastity came but withheld too much
Charity, who was so giving, entered my life.
April brought warmth and bouquets of flowers
May, I say, she was very nice. 
But it was in June that I found the most pleasure
At last Peace entered my life
