Day Thirty and One
Scream
holler
voices raised
Why do my children
only listen when I yell?
Beg
plead
whine
before I listen
God you whisper
still small voice
I'm begging
I'm pleading
I'm whining
scream at me
holler at me
raise your voice
I will listen
holler
voices raised
Why do my children
only listen when I yell?
Beg
plead
whine
before I listen
God you whisper
still small voice
I'm begging
I'm pleading
I'm whining
scream at me
holler at me
raise your voice
I will listen
Sounds just like George Herbert's poem The Collar, written in 1633
