This Time

This time, I'll see the light

This time, it will be alright

This time, we will make it !

I got faith and you can't shake it

This time will be the time

We will not fail !

Please Lord, let it be this time

Lord please make it this time!

I'm running out of time

I got nothing left !

I must succeed !

Please Lord, a little help!

I will pray, I will beleive, I won't fake it !

This time

Keep my enemies at bay and with my rewards

I will pay !

My 10% and be glad

This time

 

A thought by Sinbad The Sailor Man

About This Poem

About the Author

Region, Country: U.S. A. Indiana, Valparaiso, USA

Favorite Poets: Robert Frost, Walt Whitman, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Carl Sandburg these I have read some And so Many More. I have no Favorite or any that I dislike. Whom I consider to be poets; of course there are many Dark and hateful souls, who would cry out and to I will lend an ear, but some. They just leave a awful taste in my heart that I can not bear to read twice. Let alone as many times I would do normally; as I must.

Hello

I enjoyed your poem. You always write well. I just wanted to know if I could use some of your poem or all of it to put in my collection of poems? It would mean a lot to me. I wanted to ask to be polite. Please respond. Thank you for your time. Your Friend, Pixee

I am Not sure of what you are asking?

Are you publishing a book for charity or personal gain? You are most welcome to use it in your personal collection but, it is already copy righted and in print so I don't know if you'll need a permission release or not I am not even sure how to go about releasing it for anyone to print. As long as it is a one time deal I see no harm in allowing it but, again I am not sure of what it is you are asking for. Sinbad /Donnie
