I stare at the blank paper
Fingers poised above the keyboard
Brain trying to engage:
“Genesis, in the beginning,
One step at a time,
Ready, set, go,
Once upon a. . .
How do I begin?
Just do it !”
Without plan?
Without design?
Without purpose?
Free will
Or will it be?
Words have life –
They are not dead
When they are penned or said
They’re born for good or ill.
The best are carefully
Chosen, weighed and
Measured, then birthed
To bless those who read or hear.
Just as the Creator spoke all into
Being – not by chance or random
Selection – can I in these humble
Words do less in all my beginnings.
