POEM STARTER

Craft an ode to the trials of growing up.

An Ode is a lyrical poem celebrating or glorifying an aspect of life.

I’m Favored

I am favored.

It is only because of the grace of God

That is upon me so, when you see me

Don’t you dare get angry just thank

God on for me.

I am favored.

It is not that I have the audacity to

Even get up and dream; it is because

I have the One True Living God

Living and breathing inside of me

Taking my whole being because all

That I have is all His alone but,

Please look at me and see the grace

Of God within this beauty for if it

Was not for Him, I do not know

Where I would be but, once again

I am favored but, it is by the grace of

God only despite me going through

A lot and I couldn’t see clearly

The live of God was always upon me.

Where my childhood was broken but,

It was only God and me only.

Where he healed the most broken

Parts of me because he is closed

To the brokenhearted so, he was always

Close to me and he caused me to dare to love

And be me fully.

Where my authentic self is no longer under attack because by His grace no one can easily

Fool me to continue to be sorry for no

Reason or just because they do not like or love

Themselves truly.

I am favored enough to love the Lord fully

And live my life according His word

Even if I did not peep it myself for

In the beginning was the Word, the

Word was with God, the Word was God

So, it is only right for me to love God

Heavily and clearly for he truly sees

Me and hear but, it is only

Truly for who He is and the many names

Of him that I experienced by His grace alone

Which made me this beautiful woman

Of God capable of one day having a

Husband where we stomp out

Hell together and fill up Heaven.

I am favored.


Amen.
