Emily Kroeger Poet Rhyme

I Keep Telling My Father.

I keep telling my father, sure dad I'l be better, I'll get my life together.

He looks at me with a desparte face, "Okay my little one"

I keep telling my father I'll get my life together. 

I don't mean to hurt him.... I really mean what I say,

I just get cought up in my old ways!!!

I don't want to be this way. 

So I'm saying this prayer for the first time today,

Father in heaven, wash away the years and tears I 

flew by in just a couple of days.

I love you Lord . Keep me in your arms forever and a day!

Leon Wilson April 3, 2009 at 3:22 PM If this prayer is from the heart which I believe it is then I know God has washed away the years and tears. So chin up you are a special person much loved by God and He wants only the best for you. God Bless. Leon
