How Much I Wanted To Find A Book Poem by Mary Angela Douglas

\How much I wanted to find a book
Entitled something like
What to do in case you are surrounded by dragons
It seemed to me as life wore on
There certainly was more and more of a need
For such self help instruction
In vain I looked for it
I thought maybe I will write it myself
But I knew if I even started to put one word down
The whole tribe of them would be after me.
So I just prayed.
Im here Lord; surrounded again by dragons.
They're sleeping now.
Thank You.
