The World is Mine

The World is Mine

Today, upon a bus, I saw a very handsome man
And wished I were as handsome
When suddenly he rose to leave,I saw him hobble down the aisle.
He had one leg and wore a crutch.
But as he passed, he gave 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.Oh, God, forgive me when I whine.I've been blessed indeed, the world is mine.

~~~~~~~~~If this poem makes you feel thankful, justforward it to your friends.After all, it's just a simple reminder that wehave so much to be THANKFUL FOR!
