Divine Strength

I pray each day for Divine strength To help me make it through rough times Some vague trials with unknown length. Bad things happen it is true. For each step there's just enough light From Lighthouse to guide Christians through. And I know strength is there alright. Strength feasible from a simple Prayer to God's listening ear. He answers using disciples Dear Lord, I need your super strength More now that I am getting old. Your supernatural feats have length Reaching from heaven to earth I'm told.
Form: Saraband/Septet/two stanzas Sponsor: Cyndi MacMillan Contest: The Great Soup Poetry Release Extravaganza Topic: Strength I plan on printing it out and placing at the doctor's office and maybe hospital waiting room.
