[A poem of mine]

GOD GAVE ME A GIFT

Dedicated to Ms. Joan Cartright for her inspiration

God gave me a gift, I?ll try to explain,

God gave me a gift, and I praise His name,

God gave me a gift, now I?m not the same,

God gave me a gift, to help ease all pain.

I don?t ask for riches, fortune, or fame,

I just want to give someone some hope to go on again,

I don?t want recognition, I don?t want any praise,

I just want to make someone have happier days.

God gave me a gift, so in return I can give,

Someone that special reason to continue to live.

God blessed me I know I can never repay,

But I continue to praise him each day.

God gave me a gift, of words I can say,

To make someone smile, feel happy, and gay,

God gave me a gift and I?ll tell you true,

Pray and ask and he?ll give one to you.
