The Blessings of a Writer

Language, my revered lifelong companion,
Read and write and  therefore be enlightened and intelligent,
A memory of favorite poems and authors,
Chosen to write by the Lord, God,
 Honoured to be , and humble,
All the while learned,
To experience the beauty of nature,
The dawning of another beautiful day,
To continue to learn about God's kingdom,,
The blessings of a writer.
