I See Myself Today

An invisible person is what I seem to be, It’s as though I stand in a crowd but no one can see. Things I say seem to go unheard, As I form my lips to send forth my word. I wave my arms and jump about, I feel the rush of words as I try to shout. Please look at me I’m standing here, But I must be transparent, my body clear. Then I feel His hand on me, And He says I am God, and I do see. You are my child, I made you, son, To me you are a special one. Understand just who you are, And when I made you I lit another star. You are so precious in my sight, Son, you know I made you right. Someday I hope that you will know, How much I truly love you so. On that day, you turn it loose, In the mirror you will see my image, that only you produce.

Ron, email some lines about Tony Romo and the Cowboys so I can add it to the football poem. I've asked Marty to do the same for his team. It's not too late to get more teams some recognition. I'm at seafaress8@aol.com Love, Carolyn

Be assured that you are seen, heard and appreciated, Ron. Yes, God loves all of us and there are times when we all feel "invisible." But that certainly is not the case with you. I seek out your work for this type of inspiration and wisdom and you never fail to deliver. God bless you. Love, Carolyn
