Always Remember

So this past weekend I was at the Breathe Conference. One of the workshops that I attended was one were they critiqued poems brought by the attendees.   I can't say they all resonated with me, but one of them did. And quietly sitting me burst out with "That was interesting".  I wish I could have kept a copy, but alas, it was a read poem with no copies available.

 Always Remember

I wish could remember

the words of yesterday.

Words that sunk into 

my heart.

Making me ponder,

feel and reminisce.

That made me burst out with

"that was interesting!"

As I sit here and ponder the longing within,

For a carefully written poem.

I ponder why I don't long to remember

the words of God

Etched upon my heart more clearly.

Why does one make me long for more?

Why do I forget the longing that brought 

the heart-etching?

 

I am moved to remember

the more important thing.

God's Word.  

Clearly written.

For me.

I don't need to long for words unattainable.

They are sitting right there.

Waiting.

Let me 

Always Remember.
