I Am Not the Poet

I am not the poet I am not the poet I am not telling a story I am not putting pictures out there Less than that, I am trembling Trembling with words- babbling Babbling in my uneducated brain I don’t know how to call it Song or prose, psalm or prayer I have no story to tell I have no word to say You are silent I am in silence am not the poet, I am not a poetry maker.

Thanks for sharing this. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
