Inspiration

For each day during Advent I set myself a task

The reason why I’d do that is something you might ask!

I have to write a poem on things that I can see

When thinking of our Saviour and what He means to me.

Sometimes that is easy and sometimes it is not

Like today for instance, I think I’ve lost the plot!

I need some indication of what I ought to say

And that seems to elude me as I meditate today!

So of course I prayed that I would get some inspiration

And this of course is the result of all my meditation!

And there of course you have it! The result of all my prayer!

I wanted inspiration and so, of course, it’s there!
