I Did Some Good

It’s strange, in bleak dark hours I wish to die
And feel I should although I can’t say why,
Right in those moments-something comes my way
Suggesting that I maybe ought to stay.

A “Thank you” that I never thought I’d see,
I give so much, for what could this one be?
Appreciation, yes, a grateful friend,
Perhaps it’s not quite time for life to end.

Then more and more- from some forgotten past
It seems my acts of kindness really last-
That maybe always doing what I should
Has more than I imagined, done some good.

John H. Bidwell

John,
Such depth of wisdom! I have no idea where this poetry came from in your heart, but I do know that by writing it and sharing it with others you have done another good deed today. Because it is here someone in a very desperate frame of mind will one day read it and stop and realize they too have other good deeds left to do! A very inspiring write John and one that could a life today or ten years from now.
