a new dawn, a new day

I'm revitalizing this blog for the new year. I write in many places, on Facebook, in my book blog, in my own personal journal, but haven't written any poetry for a long time, too long. I read Psalm 6 today and verses 3-4 stuck out:

My soul is in deep anguish. How long, Lord, how long? Turn, Lord, and deliver me; save me because of your unfailing love.

How to write so beautifully, with such a brutal honesty? The Psalms are so beautiful, and remind me that I am a creative person, sometimes gifted with words, and this is another way I can speak to my God about what I want to say to Him. What a wonderful thing!
