God I'd like to hear a poem

God I want to hear a poem 
I want to hear a poem 
about Roads and streets 
and how people never liked spiders
 but somehow 
they're still building their own webs

God I want to hear a poem 
about snow 
about how each flake is different 
about the way you manage that

God I want to hear a poem
 about rain and how it graces all of us 
just not at the same time 
or in the same way

God I want to hear a poem 
about Rivers 
I want to hear a poem 
about how Rivers 
caress the mountains 
as they make their way down them

God I want to hear a poem 
about the way the sunlight 
goes through the clouds 
and what you'd call that

God I want to hear a poem 
about the way trees grow 
and how they die 
and how each one of them was made

God I want to hear a poem 
about this earth you made 
And The things you love about it 
I want to hear a poem 
about how the rivers run 
and how the sky is constantly
 in motion

God I want to hear a poem 
about us about these little things 
and how week we are 
but how we can do great things

God I want to hear a poem
about the boy I love 
and where he is 
and how he's doing 
because God I want to hear a poem 
about him and how you made him 
because God I don't know 
how you managed 
to make someone so perfect 
because God 
I want to hear about him

God I want to hear a poem about whether or not he thinks about me 
as much as I think about him 
because I'm always thinking 
about him 
God i'd like to hear a poem 
about how you see our love story 
partly because 
it might be a great love story 
from your point of view
 but mostly because 
I just love to hear how it's going
God I'd really just love to hear a poem
 It doesn't have to be about him 
and it doesn't have to be about us 
I'd just like to hear a poem

God I'd like to think 
that you could write me a poem
 I'd like to think 
that you have a way with words 
but God I really don't care 
I'd just like to see some effort
 I'd really like to hear a poem 

I'd like to hear a poem about hope 
about something to hope for 
because God 
I don't think I have a lot of that 
but God I think 
you've given me so many opportunities 
I think I need to have hope 
And God
 if you could write a poem about hope what would it sound like
