About These Three Things I Pray

About These Three Things I Pray

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dWQEUzOACm4

Clearly about these three things I pray. They are
fear of falling asleep and taking another knap,
writing poems without personal pronouns and
of course being a man Mother's Day. These
are the three things that this poem was
written about.   

Will I ever conquer my fear of taking a knap?
To me, it must have been a total mishap
Causing many people to have cried and cried
Because my poems might not be personified.

Why would I be a poet who is world renown?
And write poems without a personal pronoun
Where will my poems start at and finally fall
If either never used any or even none at all.

Another day for many mothers God has made
And as I sit in shade and also frequently laid
Why should my bright God again really bother
He let Adam be born first before being a father.

If you didn't laugh at this one you have to be
totally nuts or still trying to figure out where
you lost them at.

James Thomas Horn, Retired Poet
Oh and one more thing I pray
My poem will be poem of the day 
each and every day.
Oh, and another PS.
Add another category for cute and clever.
