You Never Cease to Amaze Me!

You never cease to amaze me!
I know I haven’t been thinking much about you lately
I’ve been so busy, what with studying and being sick,
I didn’t think you even knew or cared about all
That I’ve been going through;
The aches and pains, the severe lack of money,
Slight disappointment verging on disillusion 
On why I haven’t been able to produce anything 
Other than the occasional fourteener or haiku
While enjoying the marvellous writing of so many other poets
I’m glad now I didn’t let anything worry me too much
It's funny the way it happened but
Looking back it’s easy to see that you 
Were working away behind the scenes for me
I love the way you led me 
To learn something new about yourself
When I thought I knew so much already
This gift was such a surprise 
It still makes me smile when I think about it 
And came when I least expected 
But at just the right time for me to understand 
That God makes 'the ordinary extraordinary'*
And uses 'the simple things to do great things'*
You never cease to amaze me God!
And may you never cease  to inspire
And reveal the mystery of you to me 
Through others.

Thank you for inspiring me with your wonderful words Mark!
