Inspiration Poem by louis rams

the inspiration that i feel today
will never ever go away.
i saw a nine year old boy who taught
himself to play the guitar.
the best guitarist i've seen by far.

i seen a female cancer survivor
take the stage, and left the audience
in total rage and wondering how she
was able to hide that opera voice.

and she said 'she had no choice.'
the opportunity did not arise til now.
and that her daughter and husband
do feel proud.

i seen a seventy five year old woman
who wanted to follow her dream
of being a comedienne.
and had the audience rolling
till the very end.

so many different things
in our lives that we see
that it's got to affect you and me.
we see life saving examples every day
whether at work or at play.

when life seems to have turned its back
and you feel under attack.
when you think there's no place to go
and the answers come very slow.

that is when he lifts his hand
and erases all the cares and troubles
that are bothering you.
that is what he will do.

he is there every step of the way
and in my heart he will stay.
how much inspiration do we need?
or is it that we need more greed.

he has shown us people who
have survived a crash
pulled open the door latch
and walked away without a scratch.

in us he had planted that inspiational seed.
how much more do we need.
look around and be inspired
it is just GODS desire.
