I Can

I will protect you,
from the evil in this world.

I will always catch you,
whenever you fall in life, or on your bum.

I will adore you,
every day for the rest of my life.

I will guide you,
which path's best to take and choices to make.

I will encourage you,
to succeed in life and to do the best you can.

I will comfort you and give you peace,
when you feel down and can't carry on anymore.

I will provide the very best for you,
all the days of you're life.

I will LOVE you unconditionally,
forever and always since the beginning of time.

But I can't do any of these things,
so I will ask the one who can.

I pray that God will surround you with His favor as with a shield ,
Amen

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
