God in whom my attention flags

As I pray and sleep to

Keep awake before the

Outdoor sounds say join us in

Awakening to the Sunday

Lust awaiting you in prayerful

Chambers silent, not too much, stark

Not enough, a silly goat has

Found its way inside, once

Year a donkey walks through the

Room enchanting all, one

Day is set aside for sheep

To learn about the Good shepherd

And other metaphors for Christ

As the pastor of his flock

This day is nothing special ordinary

Words will be from Psalms

Advice perhaps from Paul

But I have prayed enough today I

Asked for strength to write

And then to stay awake and

Give gratitude for grace and peace.
