What has been my undoing has eased my memories.
I ask, whose life have I made better today?
Whose sorrow have I lifted in any way?

Whose home have I blessed as I went on my way?
When I am gone from this earth, what will they say?
How many good deeds will be counted by my name?
Or when my angel comes, will I hide and feel much shame?

Each year my dreams change as the Seasons go by.
Rarely do I ever find myself alone or with a sigh.
What is my life worth if not to help others in life to bear,
The same things I have learned to live with grace and for them to care?

What Is My Life?

What is my life but a speck of time in eternity?
What has been my undoing has eased my memories.
I ask, whose life have I made better today?
Whose sorrow have I lifted in any way?

Whose home have I blessed as I went on my way?
When I am gone from this earth, what will they say?
How many good deeds will be counted by my name?
Or when my angel comes, will I hide and feel much shame?

Each year my dreams change as the Seasons go by.
Rarely do I ever find myself alone or with a sigh.
What is my life worth if not to help others in life to bear,
The same things I have learned to live with grace and for them to care?

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
