A Prayer For Renewed Inspiration Once Again:

Re-inspire my desire

My need is dire.

Please, light my fire!

At a crossroads…I dropped the ball.

On the long stretch…I hit the wall!

Yet in you, I regain my footsteps when I fall.

In my weakness…you helped me to stand tall!

And now, I lift my banner back up into the air,

I will press-on, I will conquer…I will dare!

So listen, Lord…Please, to my prayer,

This thing is dead without your wisdom or care!

I give it up to you…do with it as you desire,

And if so willing...Help me to Re-inspire!

Born to reach out and give life my best,

Born to shrug off defeat, after every test.

Made to push my brain to its’ very limit,

Wanting to defrag all the components that are in it.

Learning to become all that I can,

Suffering from being a mere mortal man.

Take care, and not underestimate the person you see,

The one that writes this is headed for victory.

Not by my hand…but from one above,

He conquered all around him…and he did it with love!

I am on a spiritual quest,

But only to the next level…I am one with the best!

I can re-activate my own wits,

Or I can fold my arms, and call it quits.

One thing yet…this is even more true,

I can’t do any of this with out you!

Go, and take the world by storm.

Achieve the golden ring; Place it upon your finger to be worn,

Don’t think for a minute that you have it all,

And find there’s no one that will dance with you…at your own ball.

Get ready to become someone less,

And let your Creator handle the stress.

For you are the mighty you…be sure of that…I am no liar,

Go out and help to shape our world…and then to Re-inspire!

Candie V: Thank you...humbly...for what you said in your comment...and thanks for reading my poem!

"Yes" I know from where I get any and all strength!  To answer:"have you always written poetry?" My answer is: "Yes" and "No". I have always liked to create poems-but never looked at them seriously-as a way to express one's self...previously.I also like to write stories. I have one started in Fiction here...about a camp. Last year, I realized that I was writing poems as a mental break while writing a second draft to another story...and a bell went off in my brain. Mr. Manly Poetry Man was born then and has tried to see if Poetry can say things...in a Manly Way...from that day!

I hope your own writing journey continues to grow into more and more things, Candie V...in sort of the same way (You probably don't want to write Manly Poetry!)...with many new things around the corner!

You just never know! Maybe I'll join the leagues of Alter-Egos and do just that!
