Notes About The Poem

Not for contest 

Stab in the Dark

Have you ever had a day
When you wish you had wings
So you could fly away
From all the bull and everything 

Only to find out hey
God had specific plans
If I hadn’t had bad days
I’d miss my blessings and

I’d be less interesting 
Like a bird with no song
Unable to do mentoring
With lack of experience to lean on

Even when life seems 
like a stab in the dark
I hear God speaking 
Lighting up my heart
