Give Me A Poem

Written by: Robert Nehls


Give me a poem with some wrong and some right,

With choices that matter, and a whole lot of fight.

And a journey that takes me through miles and years,

With laughter and giving and genuine tears.

With some friends and some foes and a God I can trust,

To walk close beside me when truth is a must.


If you give me this friend, then I’ll give you my time.

And I’ll gladly read through all your words and your rhymes.

Then maybe your poem will lead me to more,

And others may follow me through verses door.
