The Day Sighs

The wind amplifies,

as another day ends with a sigh.

A chill courses to my bones,

winter is drawing nigh.

 

Time vanishes, passing so quickly,

where has my youth gone?

Yesterday holds it forever more,

as I maturate with every dawn.

 

I'll face tomorrow when it comes,

treasuring the peace of today.
For God to guide me in His wisdom,

is the prayer I shall pray.

    I can't help thinking of the one for whom you write the poem and how your poem is so suited to him..So thoughtfully written..Such sentiments of God being the centre figure of our lives...

    God answers all our prayers if we just pray. I think you do best at writing to God but, I do enjoy all your other work. You just have such a wonderful way of writing. I like all your writing, but I love your poems about God probably the most. I think it is wonderful that you can share your faith with others in this way. You are such a talented, versatile writer and I pray that God keeps blessing you with your writing which is so refreshing and blessing to me and to others.

    "as I maturate with every dawn." I'm not sure what maturate means - is it a word? And if so, can you explain it to me?! At first, I thought you must have meant "mature" but now I'm thinking perhaps it actually is a word, but one connected to mature? I'm all curious now.

    Very nicely written; short and concise but contained all that you needed to say. That last verse was beautiful, almost turned the entirety to a prayer. Best wishes in the contest

    I loved the imagery in this poem. You did a beautiful job as to the realities of life and the truth in only through God and personal prayer do we recieve the wisdom we need.

    I'll face tomorrow when it comes,
    treasuring the peace of today.

    BRAVO, best wishes dear friend in the contest.

    Wishing You Many Blessings
    Much Love,
