The following poem was written as part of a poetry-writing event at Spurgeons Academy, to mark World Poetry Day
When I wake up in the morning
I feel not to go to church
My mother tells me to go because church is the House of God
When I go to church I find the priest praying
I remember the bad things that have happened to me
I start crying and ask God to forgive me
I’m now aware
That God is the source of everything
I will live to praise my God
