The Poet's Prayer
Oh poet with your words so pure
Guide me with your lyrical tour
Touch my heart from deep within
Free my soul from binding sin
Lift me up above my pain
Wipe away this wretched stain
Cast your spell in magical verse
And free me from this hollow curse
Tempt me with your mournful cry
Let not this meaning pass me by
Lead me with your skillful hand
Entice me till I understand
Write your burden upon my mind
Open these eyes that once were blind
Let me share your liquid pain
As teardrops fall like endless rain
Teach me poet, all of your ways
And guide me through your heartfelt maze
May God bless all the words we share
As we recite this poet's prayer
