An Uncluttered Mind

An Unclutterred Mind

 

As dawn breaks through the eastern sky
I lie here with an uncluttered mind
Soon all the "what-if's" and the "why's"
Will be needing answers of some kind

The unfinished tasks from yesterday
I need no longer to forsake
I want the best for each of them
So just what course should I take

Often times- in days gone by-
I've sought for answers late at night
With solutions still evading me
But with a new dawn I'd see the light

To "sleep-on-it" and seek God's will
It's just amazing what that can do !
In haste we often get "off-track"
Consulting Him gives a different view

The "small-stuff" -  it is always there-
The important thing to keep in mind
Focus on things - that-matter-most-
Just keep priorities always aligned

So, Lord, please help me not forget
To seek Your counsel in all I do
Then clutter that would mar my day
Most of it  -  - I'll bid adieu-

About the Poet
I live in N.C., and have been writing poetry for several years. Writing is the greatest "outlet" I have ever experienced to release my inner emotions, and express my stance on spiritual issues. Most compositions, are derived from observing "down-to-earth" events that occur around us. Many offer a personal "mini-story" with a metaphor of spiritual implications that portray God as the ultimate solution to life's problems. My goal is that any and all compositions will present Christ and His sacrifice at Calvary as the solution to problems encountered along our journey.
