Thank God

For my mother and my fathers Full lives For my sister's and my brother My pride For family and friends For houses and land For all the luxuries that few have For answers to prayers For this heart and mind For this free country mine For more good than bad times Who made my love mine Who made this world for us Who came and gave for us Who will never leave Who helps us believe Who for my every need With out my asking sees.

As Andrea commented, these are lovely thoughts John. Thank you for stopping by and reading my Forgiven poem. Sadly, I have stopped writing poetry - after publishing 5 books I feel that I have done enough. Who knows what God has planned? I wrote purely to bless the lives of others. God bless, Maureen
