RUNNING ON EMPTY

By Kathleen Martens

June 28, 2016

My body feels okay. 

My head feels empty. 

To not write a poem

Seems so tempting.

However the desire

I yearn for each day

Is to use my gift

And to always pray.

So I will ask God

Which poem to choose

From His shelf in heaven

So today I won’t lose.

This day not captured

If I wait till the morrow,

Because from yesterday

I can never borrow.

And tomorrow hasn’t happened

And too great would be the cost,

Because if I don’t write today

This poem would be lost.

So I come with salutation

And pray God will bless you,

As I take a vacation

Since no blog is due.

And since I did not write a blog today you have a bonus of TWO ORIGINAL POEMS ON THIS DATE!

MY “THANK YOU” IN RHYME

Thank You God for Your gentle peace.

Thank You God Your love does not cease.

That You Heavenly Father that You abide in me.

Thank You Lord that You have set me free.

Thank You God for my husband’s proposal!

And thank You God for garbage disposals.

GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE.  GOD BLESS YOU.
