Poem
This has been one of the hardest years of my life, Many losses took me to a lonely empty place. Losses within my net family and my biological family. Left me shaken, confused and feeling hollow. It is late or very early THANKS GIVING morning, I have been pondering what blessings I have. It was not easy this year, so much has changed. Yet the Lord has blessed me with so much. Our home is paid for, so we have a warm place to live. A loving man in my life, three adult children, and a pet. Many wonderful friends world wide to share with. My greatest blessing is that I wake each new day. No matter what the day brings, it is an adventure. I know in my heart I never have to face it alone. Life is a blessing the good and the hard times. I Thank God for it all, and for leading me to the light. I know that those gone before are still with me, I feel their love and know they are waiting for me. When my time comes to cross over we will be together. So each day I awake and look with optimism of it's coming. Each morning sun rise brings a sigh of awe, Each evening sun set brings thanks to my heart. I have lived life wild and free in youth, Strong and steadfast as an adult, doing my best. So this THANKS GIVING I thank God for his blessings, For allowing me each day to share with those I love. For letting me view the beauty of his creation. For allowing me to write it and share my heart. DOREEN CYR OCTOBER 11, 2010
