Douglas Ace Poet Rhyme

It's Not About Me, It's All About You

You’ve seen what I would do for You, 
I’m reminded that You always knew.
It’s not about me, it’s all about You
so it matters not what You lead me through.

It matters not what You lead me through
for all of my days are to glorify You.
If to YOUR plan I will stay true,
there’s no telling what I’ll do for You.

Adversity is harnessed and used of You
but those who know this truth are few.
Others think harsh correcting is what You do
but in reality, they just don’t have a clue.

You came that others know what is true,
that they see life from Your point of view.
Then, the life that they never knew
would be there for them because of You.

Linda-Marie Sweetheart March 12, 2010 at 3:31 PM Appreciate your warm comments tonight on my poetry ...it was written a long time ago and am finding many of my luv poems are now appropriate for this particular time and space ... I posted at least 5 today written a while ago... funny how they all seem to fit so perfectly now... luv.. "Sweetheart"

Colleen Bono March 12, 2010 at 8:09 AM So right.To many people only think of themselves.I am not one of those people.More times than not I try to think of other people cause it's not all about me.Thanx for sharing and I hope all is well with you.Haven't heard from you for a bit.

Carolyn Devonshire March 11, 2010 at 7:14 PM Sadly, there are people who think EVERYTHING is about them, Doug. This is one self-centered individual and he/she probably doesn't even realize it. Like I said, sad situation. I enjoyed the creative, satirical nature of this poem very much! Love, Carolyn

Linda-Marie Sweetheart March 11, 2010 at 7:00 PM A very introspective write Ace and thought provoking moments of pondering too.. especially enjoyed the first verse .. He will show us always .. luv.. "Sweetheart"
