LIFE

ANOTHER DAY IN PARADISE
CHORES TO DO
KIDS TO FEED
NOT ENOUGH MONEY
TO MAKE ENDS MEET
HER ONCE BEAUTIFUL FACE
NOW FROWNS WITH THE WORRY
FEAR , DISAPPOINTMENT
OF THE HAND LIFE HAS DEALT HER
HUSBAND LONG GONE
BUT SHE HAS HER CHILDREN
AND SHE MUST CARRY ON
THEN JUST WHEN SHE
FEELS ALL IS LOST
ONE OF HER BROOD
COMES , SNUGGLES UP
GIVES HER A GENTLE KISS
SHE LOOKS AT THIS LITTLE
GIFT FROM GOD , WHO HAS
WITH THAT SIMPLE ACT ,JUST
GIVEN HER THE WILL TO CARRY ON
REALISING, SHE IS TRULY BLESSED
AND RICH WITH THEIR LOVE.

    incredibly beautiful…it reminded me of a couple of days ago, i got home tired after a bad day at work and my 3 year old daughter came up to me and gave me a hug and said ‘Daddy I love you very much’, it put everything into perspective; children are truly a blessing

  • janeymac replied

    And besides all,
    Love is the key,
    To the new born day
    With the clouds,
    Dark in the sky or
    Shine, through to window
    Then your face,
    In your bedroom,
    Right your eyes;
    Sleeping silent..

    Besides,
    Life is not lived
    Before the past,
    Inside of a teardrop
    In an ocean…

    Besides;
    Life is a vision,
    Simple, mean with knowledge
    As much as heart,
    Or blue in the sky of
    Heaven,
    Inside of you…

    Besides,
    It is the key;
    Love
    Of yourself,
    Inside, deep, mean…
