The Thorn 1990 by Julianna Rowe

The title should probably be "My Thorn." The bible speaks of Paul's thorn but never said what it was.  I believe we all have one or more thorns. I wrote this in 1990. 

 I had just moved from Texas to Wisconsin thinking it was a visit only.  It turned out to be forever.  I developed a severe case of agoraphobia that lasted for a few years due to personal issues.  I was divorced and left alone with four children. It all turned out fine but in the mean time I wrote the above poem. I put music to it on suno.com.  

I came out of the troubles waters.  Time has a way of handling things like that.
