the beauty taken for granted by you and me.
She relied on her sense of feel to get around,
as she struggled on her way through the uneven ground.
Not an unkind word did she ever have to share,
as she deals with her disability that left her impaired.
I once knew this man I'm ashamed to say,
that was blessed with good fortune in every way,
He was so unhappy with everything around,
he walked about his way with a sneer and a frown.
His desire for more overwhelm his mind,
a sad, bitter man is what you would find.
See you have to decide on who you want to be,
a bitter little man or one who can't see.
The choice that you make will reflex who you are,
be content to stand still or reach for the stars.
I hope you choice wisely because it will matter in the end,
when all God's children will be judged on their sins.

wonderful wonderful poetry. A wake up call to us all.

While every care is taken to ensure the general sites content is family safe, our moderators cannot be in all places; all the time. Please report poetry and or comments that are in breach of our site rules HERE (Please include poem title or url). Parents also please ensure that you supervise your children well when they are on the internet; regardless of what a site says about being, or being considered, child-safe.

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. ©
