Help Me Find the Time to Write
by Pepper Basham
copyright 04-09-2003


Age Rating: 13 to 127

 
The time to pray,
The time to write,
I cannot find it day or night.
I think I might just loose the fight,
of finding time to pray or write.

My children call me, need me NOW.
My house, it must be cleaned somehow.
I'm ready to throw in the towel,
to pray or write in life right now.

My solitude is on the pot.
The only quiet that I've got.
My children bang the door a lot,
but I must keep this quiet spot.

A minute or just two will do,
to give me time to think things through.
Insanity whispers a coo,
but memory calls that each day's new.

My spot upon the pot will stay,
I'll write in moments, night or day.
Such fun and freedom in this play,
when finding time to write and pray.

The time to write,
the time to pray,
I cannot give it up today.
Both for the soul, both for the play,
when I find time to write and pray.
To pray and write

I have a poem called "But What If I Don't Have Time' I will submit if in a few days. I hope you will read it. This is very good. Thanks, Anthony

Pepper, this sounds a lot like my life right now and I could probably throw in reading as well. Wonderful write.

The praying comes as a priority of time, the writing comes as a result of both. Great Poem..Walt

Even I can relate, between school and working, I find little time myself. Enjoyed the write =)

Great work Pepper! I believe this is something almost all of us can relate too.
