Thank God

Thank you God for bringing me
Someone who has given me
Cause to change the way I was
Now I have opened a door, that was
Never there, for me because
I thought that I’d never see
Such a talent within me
Taking words and make them rhyme
Surely, I did never take the time
To try and do it, but I’m sure
It was sure there for me so now you’re
Saying it was there so all along
And if you practice you’ll be strong
The more you do it you will find
Will cause more flowing from your mind
The words might never bring me fame
In fact they might just cause me pain
Because if others read them too
They might throw rocks and ask you too
Take me away and lock me up
So stupid rhymes I won’t think up
And write them down so thee can read
Can read them and think I’ve fallen from a tree
No sense or reason cause you know
Most of my poems should not go
To others for their view to see
Because they’re not the best you see
