Whom Do I Have?
When my future looks bleak
And my life closes in,
When I can no longer smile
Or put on a grin,
You remind me, O Lord,
Why I still breathe.
Whom do I have
In heaven but Thee?
Give me strength and courage
To face the coming days.
Give me, Lord, a vision
For I have lost my way.

Nice Poem.
A modern version of Psalms 73:25 - Whom have I in heaven but thee? and there is none upon earth that I desire beside thee.
That's the Psalm that inspired me. One of my favorites.
What else inspires you?
I love your poetry, Carey.
Your poetry is also inspiring ;)
God and nature are the dominant themes in my poetry.
Thanks, Sarah! You'll get the first book!
Don't lompsters inspire you? I can think of a funny poem or Lompster Haiku for example.
Good stuff. :)
Haha... Leila, I should very much like to hear your lompster haiku.
I am afraid you'll wait long.
