(a shout out to The Upstairs....)

In all it's ache
and pain
and blood and rain,
Life, for all it's color
is so beautiful

and with faith
though strained
metal frames can grain
on the inside of my heart
but this life gets full

up on the force Love gives.

Teach me to forgive
and everything else
needed for my legs
to pull

me up everyday
and make strong,
I pray
so I can behold
life, in all it's color-jewels

and aches and pains
and blood and rains,
they're just colors
mingled with the
wondrous Love that stains

beautifully, so to
ingrain a lock upon
the axle strain
thus keeping the turn alive,

Thank You, God,
Thank You so much
for my life.....
