Sleepily I Thank You

I woke up this morning with
my hands still clasped in prayer
Exactly as they were last night
near my bed as I knelt there

I was talking to you endlessly
to say Thanks for everything
I guess I had so many thanks
I quickly heard the alarm clock ring

But I will pray again tonight
and continue on my way
I thank you Lord, I truly do
for each and every day

      Thank you so much for your very special words about my poem. These are the type of poems that I enjoy writing. I haven't been writing much lately but hope to get back my muse...I wait patiently.

    Just lovely. Talking to God as if He were a friend is the best worship there is. This is sweet and just delightful. Best of luck in the contest.

      Thank you for enjoying my poem. I wasn't quite sure about where I was going to go with it when I first started writing it, but I guess it turned out OK. You won't believe how my knees feel ! ! ! Thanks again.
