Write A Poem
by Whitney R. Simpson

​Write a poem
most everyday
to free your spirit 
and not be led astray

Listening from within
is the only way
to discover the wisdom
of God today

It isn't found in scrolling
or opinion or polls
God whispers through creation
into your soul

What do you see, hear, feel, notice
around you today?

Let go of the external stimulation
drawing you away

Lean in and listen
only God makes you whole

What's that whisper deep inside
inviting you to stay?

Write a poem
most everyday
to free your spirit
and not be led astray
