    "A TRUE BLESSING"

      TIME HAS PASSED ON,AND I STILL FEEL TODAY,
    IS THE "FIRST DAY", MY MIRACLE HAD DRIFTED MY WAY.
    I ENTERED THIS WORLD, AN "INNOCENT" SOUL,
    I'LL LEAVE HERE WITH "FULFILLMENT" OF REACHING MY GOAL.

    THERE WERE "TIMES" IN MY LIFE, "SATAN" MESSED WITH MY HEAD,
    DONE "THINGS" I'LL REGRET, TIL THE DAY I AM "DEAD".
    "ADVENTURES", A "CHALLENGE",,,YES, I'VE DONE IT ALL!
    AFTER "SINNING", COMES "REALITY",,,,YOU'RE LEFT FEELING SMALL.

    "THE LORD" BLESSED ME "TWICE", AND I REMEMBER QUITE WELL!
    "TWO" INNOCENT" SOULS, I LEFT "BEHIND", WHEN I FELL.

    NOW YOU ASK,"WHEN YOU FELL? JUST HOW DO YOU MEAN?"
    "WHEN" I TRIPPED ON HIS "TRAP",,,,,I "FELL" RIGHT IN THE SCENE!
    "A CRAVING" FOR LIFE......MORE OR LESS AN "ESCAPE",
    "SLIGHT" SIGN OF "WEAKNESS", "THE DEVIL" WILL RAPE!

    WE TAKE LIFE FOR GRANTED, IT'S NOT ALWAYS GREAT,
    "WE" LEARN FROM "MISTAKES",,,,,,BUT IT'S USUALLY TOO LATE!
    AFTER "ALL" I'VE BEEN THROUGH, HOW DID I SURVIVE?!
    I, NOW KNOW THE "REASON", "GOD" KEPT ME "ALIVE".


    MY GOD! CAN THIS HAPPEN TO A "SINNER" LIKE ME?!
    "HIS POWER" IS "REAL", I'M LATE, BUT I SEE!
    MY "CHILDREN" HAVE FOUND ME,,,THEY'VE FINALLY COME "HOME"!
    NO LONGER I "SEARCH",,NO FURTHUR I "ROAM".


    AND TO SHOW HIS "FORGIVENESS", FOR ALL OF MY "SINS",
    A "THIRD BLESSING", HE'S "GRANTED",A "NEW LIFE" NOW BEGINS"!
    I'VE SUDDENLY REALIZED, "I'VE NOT LIVED AT ALL",
    I'VE WASTED MY LIFE,,,,JUST TRIED TO "WALK TALL".

    I NOW FEEL "COMPLETED", AND MY HEART BEATS AGAIN,
    ALWAYS "THANKING THE LORD", EACH DAY I BEGIN.

    NOW, I CAN'T CHANGE MY "PAST", OR "MISTAKES" I HAVE MADE,
    BUT I "PROMISE", MY "FAMILY",,,,,"BAD MEMORIES" WILL "FADE"......

    Written like a true child of God. I love this work, so honest, so succinct, so sad and regretful. Congratulations. Write on.....

    we're all children of god!, some just dont realize it, i write because it is a gift from him, thx my friend, god bless,carol

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
