Inspired...by 'wonders'...that exist about me.
Inspired...by Nature...and by words I hear
From those who know me best...yet never doubt me
And seem, somehow...inspired...to have me near!
I'll NEVER understand,,,how THIS can happen...
I've such a small amount...to offer them.
But in my...inspiration...I write HIS words...
So...they're not...inspired by ME...they're touched...by HIM!
The words He bids me write...speak of the beauty
I see in life...EACH MOMENT...that I live
But 'beauty' goes beyond...the eyes' beholdings...
Inspired...am I to KNOW that He forgives!
The time I've wasted...as I idly...'floundreed'
Grasping at a 'dream'...without reward.
Pursuing 'goals'...that never....really mattered,
Renouncing...inspiration,,,from the Lord.
So in a sunrise...I may find a comfort,
And in a sunset...instant peace of mind,
And as a rainbow shows its lavish colors,
More beauty in the Master's touch...I find!
The birds...their symphonies...beyond all measure,
The flowers' sweet perfume...my nostrils fill,
While held within the circle of HIS treasure,
I find that I'm....inspired...to do His will.
Inspired...to write HIS words...provides a 'reason'...
I try to speak the things...HE'D have me say.
Rewards may come....as SMILES....on friendly faces,
I'm still...inspired...by Him along my way.
Inscribe upon my heart...HIS life of caring...
And in my mind...preserve the words He said,
Make me EVER on alert....to hear HIS message.....
And...NOT miss the...inspiration...that's ahead!
