A Poem from the The Poet and His Thoughts Collection
My Friend God - Viewed 462 Times

January 28, 2008
I spoke with my friend God last night
About this life we’ve shared
He told me that though life’s been tough
I need not be despaired
He understands just how I feel
And all that I must learn
And that I do not stand alone
When for his love I yearn
He counseled me then did explain
About humanity
And helped me then to recognize
The strength of liberty
The freedom that I have to choose
No matter right or wrong
And that there is so much to life
That truly makes me strong
I told him of those crazy things
That I was prone to do
And he replied he knew them all
Before they passed me through
I said that others called them sins
Which lead to mans disgrace
To comfort me he did reveal
My life and every trace
He then explained that loving him
Was hardest for each soul
But if we kept him in our heart
We’d reach a special goal
That loving him is easiest
By loving those we know
Our friends and too our family
Do help love constant flow
And when we spoke of my mistakes
He everyone forgave
So I could love him even more
And for his friendship crave
He shared examples with me then
Of those who came his way
Saints and sinners every one
Whose lives he did display
And last and most importantly
He took me by the hand
And told me through eternity
He would beside me stand
