Notes About The Poem

He Rescues Me

Why do I feel so low today? I trust that if I kneel and pray, my sincere appeal for help will convey high hopes He’ll hold my troubles at bay. By default, I get off-keel and lose my way, sigh, and say, “Lord, heal my hurt; dispel my dismay.”

These triple rhymes look so hard to execute--you did well, Janice, within a divine message and a prayer.
