To a very special page. This first poem "Sometimes" was written by me when my diabetes had me feeling sort of down and ill. I showed it to my dear friend Sharon and she wrote the poem "Loved" in response. When I am not feeling well or maybe a little sorry for myself I need only to remember I have so many wonderful friends and angels in my life that I never need feel alone. I am richly blessed by you all.



 

Sometimes

Sometimes when the dark clouds loom up overhead
I feel so sick and tired and I can't get out of bed

Sometimes when my hopes and dreams seem so far away
I feel so scared and lonely, "Please help me Lord" I pray

"Take away these walls of doubt here inside of me
Take away these blinders and help my eyes to see"

Being diabetic is just part of my life
I must do the very best I can
to stay strong and keep up the fight

I have to believe I am good enough,
if not me then who will care

Who will stop to wipe my tears
touch my cheek or stroke my hair

Life was so much easier when I was a little girl
I had no worries my life was beautiful and
I thought I owned the world

But now I see that our lives are not always as we have planned
sometimes we hurt, sometimes we stray and forget our fellow man

I must fight everyday to stay healthy and stay strong
I have so much to live for and must sing a survival song

I must look, and know each day is a gift God has given to me
find the beauty and the magic in each and everything I see

Be loving and kind to everyone even if they are not to me
keep the feelings for others in my heart then I am truly free

And when my life is over and I am asked what I have done
I can look into the eyes of my Savior and say
"I have tried to love each and everyone"

Loved

You will never walk any road alone
You have me by your side
You have the love of many friends
We will help you keep your stride

You brighten up our dreary lives
You sing an angels note
And if you ever gave up now
Then I would give up hope

You have so much to live for
You've spread love right from the start
You make us feel there is happiness for all
With the love that comes from your heart

You're one of my reasons for loving
Thank you my sweet baby girl
When your illness gets you down at times
Remember you are loved in this world

In the end when God calls us
And we look him in his eyes
It's not what people do for us
It's how we were loved in our lives
