A Poets Prayer

Belinda Richmond 1979 (Chicago)

April 22 


Dear Heavenly Father ask this Day,

Bless me with words to speak on today,

Give me the Wisdom and Knowledge to Inspire,

And to recite my poems as I so Desire,

Bless my poetry and bless my words,

For people to listen and my Poems to be heard,

Thank you for Blessing me with Words to Share,

Thank you for Blessing me with A Poets Prayer!

 

AMEN!
