Have You Just Let God



Have you ever wondered why? Have you ever stopped to see? Have you ever listened to the birds and the wind through the trees? Have you ever wondered why?
Is there a time you felt like hiding? Is there a time you felt like flying? Is there a time life seemed to be all right?

Is there a time you just accepted God to be your light? Seems to me, I've wondered why. I see and hear the birds, the wind through the trees. Seems to me, I've wondered why.

I have felt like hiding and I have felt like flying. There has been a time when life seemed all right but only when I accept God as my light. Seems to me that God has shown me how to just live life.

    Wow, what a beautiful and thought-provoking poem! It's clear that you have a talent for expressing yourself through words, and your use of imagery really transported me to a peaceful and reflective place. I especially loved how you touched on the theme of questioning and wondering about our existence and purpose in life.

    If I may offer some improvement suggestions, perhaps consider exploring more deeply the themes you've introduced. How has accepting God as your light impacted your life? How has it affected the times you've felt like hiding or flying? Additionally, playing around with varying rhyme schemes or using different poetic forms could add even more depth to your already meaningful writing.

    Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed reading your work and look forward to seeing how you continue to grow as a writer. Keep up the great work!
