Notes About The Poem
My desire to write and to learn is great but life sometimes interfers with my desire..God spoke to me and said wait..I said Lord I am old and my time is limited..Sara

Golden Words

Writing in twelve lines frustration Bitter pill I swallow Wanting to write but obstruction Bummer but not wallow Minor problem or great crushing If God wants will allow Could be I am one that's rushing Wait on the Lord just bow Displeasure my disgruntlement But Lord my age is old Wait for acknowledgement Then words penned will be gold
When I waited on the Lord, He renewed my strength.. In honor of Brian Strand Contest:Rhyme, max twelve lines Click on "About This Poem" Written by: Sara Kendrick

a great message, Sara, and I see congrats are in order. WAY to GO (the dementia was very true. My stepdad had to be taken to a nursing home where he died the next year. It was a terrible and slow death. I hate that disease).
