Poem
My life is full of surprises, I have been through many compromises. That is what has made me a strong man, but not without Gods hand. He has blessed me time and time again, I know he has forgiven my sins. I was struggling in poverty, with a mother that loved me dearly. I would wear clothes 2 x's a week, and had one pair of sneakers for my feet. I was neglected cause my brother needed more so I understood and stayed strong to the core. I made friends easily, but we moved around like a spring breeze. Never had my own stuff, just hand me downs from other closets. My mom kept us eating anyway she could, even if it meant walking many miles through the cold. My family stayed strong and together, through the changes in our weather. My mother was a great dancer, and my father reminds me of cancer. I have two brothers and one sister, and I am the oldest did you figure. There is the younger brother, the straight shooter, he loves his video games and cartoons. Then the middle a pretty boy thug, but there is a side of him that still needs a hug. Then my sister, who is full of excitement, likes to talk a lot, but still has God on her side. She is going to be someone important in life, maybe a doctor, scientist or just a good wife. Now my step dad, who is full of heart, without him maybe we would be broken apart. He continues to show me how a man should be, regardless the pain or situation you see. Although I've never seen him wear Tommy Hilfigure, to me he is still a great father figure. The one I thank most is my mother, she dropped her dreams to have me, I know she was a great dancer, but her children made her free. No one could take her place because she is blessed with the Lords grace. My life doesn't end there, cause its a lot more.here. Then I met the most beautiful woman, now we are married and shes my cushion. I need her so much to continue on, the thought of her gone makes me mourn. We have been through the trials of life, and God shows us he is the most high.He blessed us with a baby boy, that just shows the Lords grace even more. Living in two different bodies with one soul, no matter summer spring, fall we will be together through heat or cold. I am thankful for everything and everyone, but most of all for being blessed with a son. Thats my life in a nutshell, cause no matter how many times I have fell, I will always remember with the Lord on my side, I will get right back up and strive.
