a grace before dinner blog for 2/23

O thou who kindly dost provide
For every creature’s want!
We bless Thee, God of Nature wide,
For all Thy goodness lent:
And if it please Thee, Heavenly Guide,
May never worse be sent;
But, whether granted, or denied,
Lord, bless us with content. Amen!

so this poem was about a prayer obviously i mean just look at the title
when you first read it its kinda doesn’t flow well

but the second time your ead it it seems pretty well understandable
it reminds me of the simple prayer i used to say when i was little

It just is a poem about thanks to God

its talking abut how good he is to us and how if we need anything
he will give us nothing but good. and whoever was saying the prayer is
saying no matter if you grant us or prayer or denie it
they hope God blesses them with just his grace.
i don’t know if that is right but thats what i got outta if

i think that righting a poem about this was was a good idea
i really enjoyed it

Some literary techniques that i noticed about this poem is the rhyme scheme

it had an AB AB pattern
except that some of the words that were to be rhymed didn’t
go well together like want and lent but it still goes together

some more things i noticed about it was it flowed well with everything.
and it had like 8 lines
