A Prayer

a poem by thenorm

God, give me strength.
Please
Let me set
One foot in front of the other,
Do what I must do
So we can be 
Where we dream to be.

God, give me wisdom
So I can help
Grow this love of ours,
Be surrounded by this most wondrous
Gift you have given me,
Let me love her rightly.

God, give me courage,
For when my will falters
And the road seems far too long,
Let me draw upon You
To remember,
This moment,
This space in time
Is just Now,
Not Forever.

When all inside is shaking
And my heart forgets a beat
Let me remember, 
Now
Always
This wonderful woman,
This beautiful love
You have given to me.
