When you are discouraged,
take the time to pray.
Watch your spirits rise,
and troubles blow away.

Can't say I agree with Christianity and prayer, but even I found this calming, thanks to your background/font colours and your command of metre. I like the idea of troubles blowing away, too.

Aie, I have found that praying is crucial to living a peaceful life. I can't imagine what people go through when they do not have God in their lives. People should pray not just to ask for things and get forgiveness, but also because it clenses the body and mind. Anyways, nice little poem. I agree with you here my friend.
