Poems About Poets and Poetry

When sharing poetry I often feel foolish, for I know of my limitations as a writer. Does the poem make sense - is it silly - is it no good - will people think I am strange etc, I need to be prepared to get over my insecurities and be a fool for God.

The Fading Dew
The writing process can leave you feeling deflated. Inadequate words written that fail to fully capture the true essence of God’s love and grace. However, our worth is not defined by what we write or say or do, but by what He has done and says.
