Blessed Poem by Paula Glynn

I am blessed to be this person,
I have taken advantage,
Of many opportunities,
I have explored and discovered,
The world: a world,
Of many colours and creeds.

There is such a vast variety,
People dominating the planet,
And buses and trains,
Go on their journeys every day,
And every night,
I have been on many,
Planes, trains and cars.

I have met so many people,
And we talk each day,
No matter where I am,
Happy to talk on the telephone,
Happy to be myself in this life,
And happy to speak my mind.

For I don't take things lying down,
I don't run or hide,
For my world runs on love,
My heart is bursting with love.

No matter the drama,
I love my brother and sister,
Father and mother,
Friend and lover,
I make the most of each second,
Each minute, each hour,
And each day and night.

Time goes by fast,
And I live fast,
For I am blessed,
I have created my own destiny,
With my own brand of freedom,
My own goals and purpose,
And I only answer to myself,
I know to look after myself,
And only let God judge me.
