This Is My Life

Now having reached three score and ten it sounds like fun to just look back over the years that's gone by it's a wonder all I've had on track Born two days after Santa's day adopted at 6 weeks by new mum and dad I then was found to have a stammer that was difficult for a mere lad After school, I worked as an electrician but I was found to be color blind so found work in food wholesale which mostly was an enjoyable find In my mid-20s love met me straight Jean being my real love so true we got wed in '81, life was fab sadly Jean passed away in '82 After being a widower for 9 years found a real love in Christine once again now being married all of 34 years happy we've been, making a special blend The greatest thing has been Jesus meeting God's saviour changed everything dying in my place on Calvary's tree Jesus's eternal love makes my heart sing Now in my retirement years enjoying a life filled with peace and calm having got contentment with every word even to write rhyme like David's Psalms (I thought having now passed 70 years it would be good to write my thoughts based on my true story in poetic form on how life has been with its ups and downs, hope you enjoy reading this personal piece. )
