A Little Prayer

Today on this day,I said a little prayer For all the poets that I some how find Your words reach deeper inside of me Instead of floating all alone in my mind We were given a meaningful purpose in life Though some of you may still not know Words you write reach the hearts of many Setting off a fire,that starts with a little glow Some words people read,can change them Even giving them a new outlook on life In our hearts there is a special place That gives us enlightening words to write Sometimes our words may be filled with sadness Though for a while,that's the way it must be With a little prayer from my heart,I want you to know Those words will always be very special to me

Dan I just love your little prayer. We all need a little prayer sometime. One for you. Tonight when I'm alone with JESUS and everything is hid frome View - I will gently drop into his heart a little prayer for you. Lucilla
