Poetry: A writer's prayer

by Marlene Bricker

Created on: May 11, 2009

As I sit down to write

Be it day or late at night

I take a moment to to go inside

To that dark place. The place where You reside.

At that point I sincerely request

That You take over. I do my best

To empty. To let go of every thought and every word.

All I learned. All I heard.

Gone. Empty. Ready to receive

Only that which you desire

Me to put on the page to inspire

The reader. Inspiration from You.

Is all that I do.

From my heart to the page

I simply engage

Your word.

I give thanks. I heard.
