Poem
When the seas of life have tossed me to and fro or my heart has been filled with regret I've been rescued by people whom I did not know or by folks I'd just recently met. In the same way strangers have needed me and I felt it my duty to answer their call thus we became good friends immediately and shared the greatest kind of love of them all. I've always been one to show much gratitude for what others have done for me this would explain my optimistic attitude and why I love so wholeheartedly. Sure, I have relatives like normal folks do we share a bond which is quite strong but when I was lost not knowing what to do God would send one of these strangers along. I used to think family was all that I had therefore, I tried to keep my family nearby but many times in the past when my storms would get bad twas perfect strangers who answered my cry. These people came along and took me in we sat together waiting for my storms to cease we then formed a bond stronger than any of my kin and shared a friendship filled with true love and peace. I know that God's blessing me in times like these when I had no one at all to turn to I thought that I'd just drown in my stormy seas but He'd send a stranger to my rescue. I thank God up above for His mercy and love and for sending these strangers my way He lets me know that I'm His and always thought of and that I will be helpful to a stranger one day. As I sit alone in silence and contemplate the many times I've been saved from life's dangers I know that God's love saved me from a terrible fate and that He gave me most of His love through strangers by Benjamin Macieo Davis ThePrinceofPoetry
