and I know you feel the same-
we cannot wait ‘til Thursday comes
so we can write again!
The topic now is poetry:
Could something be so far
from anything I’ve ever tried;
my name I’ll surely mar!
Although it’s not my genre
I’m giving it a try,
‘cause when I read Kenn Allan’s work
it makes me want to cry.
I want to be that gifted,
though novels are my love...
but with God’s hand in my work, too,
I’ll be a step above.
I hope my words enlighten
just as Kenn’s prose can do,
and all my readers gather 'round
when my stuff comes out, too.
Here’s hoping each and everyone
who has a writer’s heart,
will be as blessed and humbled, too
as each of us depart:
To find our own niche in this world,
uncovering God’s plans.
And bless our pens and paper, too
as You have blessed that man’s!

However, this is not supposed to be about me, but your poem. If it is true you have never dabbled in rhyme before, I'm VERY impressed! You did a good job maintaining a constant rhythm and flow throughout. Poems may not be your chosen genre, but within your chest beats the heart of a poet, which can truly enhance your efforts as a novelist.
This was great to read.
God Bless
