Christmas wrapping paper Mom gave to me
her heart lined with gold and $3.00 was what
she spent but it was the thought.

Seems like a lot of people are sick these days
no cure for the weak makes you want to
bow your head and pray.

My uncle just got out of the hospital he says
he can't take care of himself and that he needs
to be in a rest home.

Dad's boss at work is losing his father in three
weeks that's all the hospital is expecting him to
live to.
Make the funeral arrangements so close to
Christmas time.

I had a dream last night me and this lady I worked
with was standing in a church there was a graveyard
next to the church she told me over there is my home
I said yes right around there is your home pointing
toward the graveyard.
I am worrying myself into an early grave and God is
making me see that if you let your worries get away
from you
life will be out of reach.

I worry a lot about the bills.
Far in debt and nothing to show for it.
Depression wilts the mind and things are
starting to happen my eyes are no longer
blind.

I have hurt a lot of people because I am angry
for working my butt off and not having anything
but now that I see other people's problems
the numbness has gone away.

God just wants me to have love that's all he wants
he doesn't want me to have a mansion made for
the best kings He just wants for me to have the
best warm house with heat and food to eat.
A husband to be with me every day.
Good health and warm love.
That's all I really need.

Mother spent $3.00 on me but it was the
best feel in the world the smallest amount
of money makes you feel rich out of this
world.

I count my blessings.
Thank you God for letting me see
that the most important thing is
love that's all the spirit needs.

(Thank you Jesus for my health, friends, and love)
(Thank you Jesus for giving me life and dying for me)


Love always,
Angel

Love indeed covers and heals wounds, if allowed. Great work and I think you did it well!

Dear Misty,

Forgive me for getting to this wonderful poem a little late. Beautiful poem and beautifully executed. Some blessings go unnoticed and taken for granted, yes. Those that can recognize the blessings in the smallest of doses are truly blessed. Thank you for sharing with us, and again welcome to the forum. Take Care.
