What is a Poem
~~~
What is a poem, if not a prayer
A pleading coo on whispered air
A beg for grace in lyric tone
Words, the sacred given throne
~~~
Metered hymn in reverence
Language seen as recompense
Worship we the things held dear
In rhyme and rhythm to the ear
~~~
A tithe of time and of tense
Scriptured lines in silence
Gospels of man written there
What is a poem, if not a prayer
~~~
Beautiful words!
Thanks sis! Love you!
yes!
Thanks Beth!
This is one of the most beautiful poems I’ve ever read. Your writing is that of famous poets. If not a prayer or that which we worship. You so simply, profoundly, and lyrically, penned everything I feel about poetry and words. Thank you, Brad.
You are too kind! Thank you for your uplifting words.
You’re welcome!
And a most beautiful prayer indeed!
Blessings to you my dear friend! Enjoy your weekend.
Thank you very much my friend! You too!

What a lovely poetic prayer. This is so gorgeous Brad. You began this poem so beautifully and ended it reverently. Really a blessing to get going on a Saturday morning and to be inspired by your work. Sending you hugs and my love always Brad. 🤗❤️💕Jonikins
