Motivated By My Parting Gift

I was motivated by My Parting Gift by
Andrea Dietrich to write this poem.

After from an old day, I am departing
Tomorrow a new one will be starting
Seeing how much God meant to me
Opened my eyes so clearly can see.

Up my many sins may be mounting
Large number and difficult when counting
And for me always is God's objective
To love neighbors and be less selective.

Write more poems have motivated me on
And will do so again at the next new dawn
After each poem of mine had been done
God had saved me and He was the one.
