July 22, 2007 |
Three two’s two zeros now I count
The days I’ve been alive
Have I best used most every one
And for what did I strive
I true believe that most of all
I sought to share God’s love
Though so imperfect have I been
He blessed me from above
I’ve tried to love my family
And give them all they need
Counsel them and too console
And plant a healthy seed
To friends I’ve tried to show respect
Patience and concern
And from most every one of them
Bout true love I did learn
I fought a war that no one won
And fathered children three
Lived a life of fantasy
So few did ever see
Too often I was all alone
With none but God at night
The darkness was a lonely friend
The morning eased my plight
My days in thousands numbered now
Each one I did caress
And when at midnight they did end
Their memory I’d bless
How strange it is to recollect
This gift of life I’ve found
A true composite of each one
For heaven I am bound
And though I’ve faltered on the way
God did my faults forgive
Allowing me to honor him
With every day I live | | © 2007 David Devaney |
