Tune: Doncaster
(\'Put thou thy trust in God\')
Based on Matthew 5 v.14-16
*********
A poem every day?
Or sometimes is the way
To ponder, meditate a while
\'Til further thoughts compile
And what may your theme be?
Varied words true and free
What from your heart and mind you share?
A word, thought, song, or prayer?
Let the Spirit you guide
And not now His light hide
Your style unique, none be the same
No other by that name
\'Tis your compilation
Each poem, ode, each one
Sharing your gifts, contributing
Poems we say or sing
What genres do we tend?
What positions defend?
What be our desires, let the writs
Be scribed as each befits
So pleasures, joys, and pains
All human life again
Poetically expressed, we be
A fine community
