A New Day

Composed like a sonnet

Everything in its place.

Yesterdays mournings gone,

Death again lost the race.

 

Don't want to open doors

Like those I went through.

Saw myself pleading

To spare me anew.

 

Illness besets us

And lets us know

Who is in command

Of this great show.

 

Thank you God,

Have much to repay.

Glad that I lived

To see a new day.

George,

I always thank God for a new day, 24 hrs. to fill given to us freely by God. I know some don't make it through the night, I woke to see the sun streaming through my window, so yes, THANK GOD.

Love and blessings,
+Linda
