NOT ONE THING

 

The night falls asleep, when I

Think of those that lie –

In the shadows of a forgotten time,

When sadness has drawn the line –

Then I woke up to a new day,

And know that life is a game to play,

But for some it’s life they dread

Never thanking God for their bread!

And when these emotions rise in me

The true meaning of life I can see –

And when the world is in a mess . . .

I watch the lilies of the field undress,

And then I know that Life is good –

I’d change not one thing if I could!
