Worry

Worry here worry there 
It's no wonder I'm losing my hair

Worry this and worry that
I am so tired of wearing this hat

Worry about money to fix the house
No wonder I don't get along with my spouse

Worry about money to pay our bills
No wonder I feel tired and ill

Worry about my girls and what their future may hold
No wonder I feel worn out and old

Worry about my wife and how she feels
No wonder rest escapes me even when I take pills

No worry when I look back and see
God has always provided for my family and me

No worry anymore about my past
Gods forgiveness last last

Worry about what the future holds
Weak faith is what keeps me in this mold

No worry about staying there
The mold is cracking with every prayer

Nice thoughts of satisfaction when the old year is about to go and the new round the corner. Nicely rhymed and rhythmatic poem, Bobb
