My Feelings


I am accountable for my own actions as there is no other
My life is separate and distinct for there is not another.
I shall answer for what I did and did not
What I will receive in judgment may not be what I thought.

That my time on earth will receive its measure
Hopefully with compassion and mercy part of the treasure.
I will confess my great gratitude for my health
For the vision to see your daily gifts of wealth.

My senses so acute and yet soothing
The ability to see the stillness and also what is moving.
To distinguish the colors of your brilliance and earthly green
Everlasting thankfulness for each and every scene.

For the voices of children in joyous play
A remembrance of my time from another day.
To embrace, holding hands and first kiss to taste
How young and vibrant yet how quickly time I did waste.

For all that sustained me through the years
My strength and weakness along with happiness and tears.
Forgive me for the years I failed to acknowledge you as the giver
For the abundance I received from the flowing river.

I would thank you for much and then even more
But my God, my hope, my benefactor, my friend; please open the door.
The door to my present and future to eternally last
And please God; allow me to remember part of my past.

My family, friends, music, and certainly not last but always you
The eternal giver to what I was, I am, and will be; as a final view.
It has been a remarkable journey that I did partake
For those I loved I can never eternally forsake.

In closing I have faith in the word called finality
As I will always love you my God within the oneness of your totality.
Please be gentle as when I came
With the acknowledgment of perfect love and not to blame.
