The World is Mine

 

Dear Friends

Happy Friday

Sharing a poem by an unknown author

This poem is a simple reminder that

we have so much to be thankful for!

Give the gift of love.

It never comes back empty.

Be Happy with What u Got.

The World is Mine as I am and Thankful for what I have .

 

Today, upon a bus, I saw a very handsome man,

And wished I were as beautiful.

When suddenly he rose to leave,

I saw his hobble down the aisle.

He had one leg and wore a crutch.

But as he passed, he passed a smile.

Oh, God, forgive me when I whine.

I have two legs; the world is mine.

 

I stopped to buy some candy,

The lad who sold it had such charm,

I talked with him, he seemed so glad,

If I were late, it'd do no harm.

And as I left, he said to me,

"I thank you, you've been so kind.

It's nice to talk with folks like you.

You see," he said, "I'm blind."

Oh, God, forgive me when I whine.

I have two eyes; the world is mine.

 

Later while walking down the street,

I saw a child I knew.

He stood and watched the others play,

but he did not know what to do.

I stopped a moment and then I said,

"Why don't you join them dear?"

He looked ahead without a word,

I forgot, he couldn't hear.

Oh, God, forgive me when I whine,

I have two ears; the world is mine.

 

With feet to take me where I'd go,

With eyes to see the sunset's glow,

With ears to hear what I'd know.

With loving family friends to enjoy life

Oh, God, forgive me when I whine,

I've been blessed indeed, the world is mine.

 

 Kind regards
