BLESSINGS

Out with the old? No that would be me

In with the new, whatever will be.

 

Remember, reflect, then plan ahead

We got through it all, no need to dread.

 

Last year I found that in sickness and health,

A family that cares is worth more than wealth.

 

They pulled their weight and stuck by my side

Made me so proud, I burst with pride.

 

No asking or needling, no prodding it took

They helped Christmas Eve when dad couldn’t cook.

 

Not only to me but to others they gave

Of their time, their hearts, and money they’d saved.

 

Compassion for others, their kindness and giving

No words need said, it shows by their living.

 

I speak of my children, whom I deeply love

They are precious gifts from the One above.
