Prayers provide care,
When faith falters,
Rousing Hope,
To Let
Live!
Wait,
For Time
To respond,
Beck’ning Patience,
For supportive crutch!

Another amazing poem!
I have been trying my hand at it…a few failed attempts…I get carried away with words…have to learn to control their flow! 😀

Prayers are so important. They provide hope, even when times appear hopeless. A lovely write.

I like the image of patience as a supportive crutch. Thank you for that! I’m going to lean on that crutch to get me through the work day!

  …always good to have ‘her’ at hand. Most helpful lass. I’m sure ‘she’ will have seen you through the day… 😉 Hugs! ❤

    before I took that poetry writing class last year I had no clue as to writing poetry…if it didn’t rhyme it wasn’t a poem.

        the point is that I never really tried before, excepting the occasional “inspiration”… you could write a “tutorial” on your blog ….some just have no idea how to begin, and need a few rules 🙂

        ‘Inspiration’ counts for a lot…We have to be ‘open’ to the ‘prompts’ of the ‘mysterious muse’….. 😉 Hugs!

        I know, sometimes I sit down to write and there is nothing there…complete blanks times I can’t write fast enough Most poetry I write first draft in pencil first…before typing; prose I rarely write in longhand because its easier to edit poetry with an eraser on a pencil.

        Everyone evolves his/her own ‘system’….Rhyme/Rhythm/Meter are mine….any one at any one time….Sometimes a ‘word’ or ‘phrase’ gets me going….even a ‘thought/idea’ can trigger something….. 😉 Hugs!
