I can put myself out there and share from my heart,
Or keep my rhymes hidden and never depart.
I don’t have control over where they may land.
Someone may listen, agree, understand,
While others may judge them as simple and trite.
If I’m hampered by fear as I pen words I write,
Concerned about critics and what they might say,
Then the words become blocked as fears get in the way.
Lord help me to write from my heart without fear,
Find places to share with the people who’ll hear.
I pray I pen words that are loving and kind,
Words that touch others in heart, soul, and mind.
Lord help me continue to learn and to grow.
Lord lead me to places that you’d have me go.
Good morning John!
Thank you for your words I always need to be reminded of the simple and good way.
