    About this ebook

    I want to write your song my love
    For its what i want most for you
    I've listened to your spirit
    Heard your music
    And I want to write the lyrics to your song
    For it needs to be heard
    By everyone with hearts enough to listen
    I believe in you
    And will be here
    In greatest joy or deepest sorrow

    Author

    Katie Parker

    In second grade, Katie Parker wrote her first novel about a heartbroken tapeworm. Since then, she’s published many (much better) nonfiction kid’s books on topics ranging from astrophysics to zoology. When not researching all sorts of fun things, Katie can be found running, rescuing animals, or exploring outside. She shares her Connecticut home with her wonderful husband, three amazing kids, and their Elder Statesdog, Bocephus the Beautiful. Her first novel remains inexplicably unpublished.

      Reflections Of A Poetic Muse - Katie Parker

      Katie E. Parker

      Copyright 2014 by Katie E. Parker

      Smashwords Edition

      BEFORE I RISE

      Father

      Before I rise this morning

      Let me thank you for the beauty that resides outside my window

      For the air I breathe

      And for Your undying love

      And Father

      Before I rise

      Let me remember

      That greater joy is found when we look for ways to bless another before ourselves

      Placing joy in the hearts of those we care about

      Can make our hearts sing

      Our Souls rejoice

      And for you to quietly say well done

      There is no greater joy then to warm the heart of the ones we love

      Seeing them smile

      Can bring our hearts to tears of joy

      And bless us more then anything that could be placed at our feet

      Spreading Your love Lord

      Comes with the most wonderful feeling

      Walk with me as I go about my day

      Bless those I come in contact with

      As well as the one dearest to my heart

      That loves you more than words can say

      And waits for the sun to rise outside his wind

      So he too can bow his head

      And in his gentle voice pray

      Lord

      Before I rise

      Help me to bless another before myself

      And for those who reach out to me

      Help me to find the words

      To bring sunshine into their otherwise darkened world

      Help me to be
