A Poets Prayer Poem by Robert Roberts

</>Dear father
you've entrusted me with this gift
and though my life may not be perfect
i promise to use it
you've giving me the ability to write
and for that i ask you guide my endeavors
I've seen many try and succeed
so i will try
may my lyrics influence the mind of the younger generation
and may i be immortalized not in flesh
but in mind and heart
not only in the heart of my family
but the heart of many long after am gone
may my poems be set as the floor bored
of a generation as i lay emotion
far from anything that i can show
into writing.
so your guidance is all i ask
