The Writing Prose Process!

I started with the title first, That interesting pun, For nothing else had been rehearsed Or thought what should be done... And now I'm thinking what to write! I'm puzzling thoughts within, As if I'm scanning for insight As soon as I begin! My word, that first verse wore me out! Contrived in many ways, But that's what my life's all about, Or else each poem strays! I strive to share words from my soul As well as heart and mind, Then struggle with my self-control, Some wisdom to unwind... The third verse, now, it's here, at last! Praise God, it's working well... I don't know why I felt downcast, As all things seemed to gel... Yet suddenly, I realised, My musings were absurd... I should have prayed to Jesus Christ, Yet hadn't prayed a word! Oh, dear... I'm such a naughty boy... This could have been sublime! A precious poem to enjoy, Oh, well... maybe next time... Not every poem's good as gold, Of course, that asks too much... God knows, I must be getting old, But prayers keep us in touch... Denis Martindale, copyright June 2014. Google search the websites for GOD TV and Revelation TV and their Watch Now TV programmes.
