Trying to let go.
Aspiring to let it flow.
Pretending I don’t think I know.
Waiting for nothing
and hoping it will soon arrive.
Asking for nothing
and keeping a desire inside.
Giving all I own
except for what I keep at home.
Thinking I don’t care
but only if you will be there.
Where is faith
and do I dare.....?
David, this is a hard kind of poem to write....seriously making a decision. I think the rhymes in your first three lines distract from the poem. Just try it without the rhyme and see whether you like it better. (Even the first two lines are fine...it's just that third rhyme that jars.) Just a suggestiion. Raynette

the art of asking for something fom the almighty is to be modest. you got it david.

David, I liked the unanswered question at the end Do I Dare? David
