A Place To Pray Poem by C R Clark
A Place To Pray
The autumn leaves fell to the ground
One crisp October day
As through the forest walked a man
To find a place to pray
His mind was filled with worldly stuff
Of problems great and small
He knew he’d never rest until
He gave the Lord, them all
The forest welcomed the troubled soul
To it’s leafy, splendored halls
And there in the woods, the man knelt down
And to the Lord, poured out his heart
There’s no better place in all the world
To be alone with God
Than in his forest on a cool clear day
When autumn leaves begin to fall

I too find a forest a very spiritual place. This is a beautiful poem, well written. Top marks, Andrew.
This poem is very beautiful as you describe Autumn in the air. The imagery is a delight and the forest sounds a very special place indeed. Karin Anderson
Beautiful poem. It feels like a line from one of my poems might fit in: 'The sounds of nature like a choir sings / A hymn to us it brings'
it seems to beg for another line in conclusion as if it ends too abruptly. I hope that comment helps.
i particularly love the last stanza.Amen to this, Richard.. yes, i love this setting and i can directly communicate the Lord in this way..You have inspired me tis wonderful evening, your words are marvelous and the flow are simply beautiful and loving..thanks for this sharing..
