There are many sad items of news around and it got me thinking about all the things I am grateful for of news around, it got me thinking about all things in my world and I find that I am lucky, I have a great life.  This poems is a way to saying how blessed I really am!

This world we live in is a funny place

far to complicated for me, you know

want to see whats happening in my space ?

then come along, see it all, watch it flow

there are so many people in my world

they come and go throughout my life time

some for a day, others for much longer

they don`t always see me in my prime

can`t choose your family, just your friends

I am lucky with those who I have met

remembering all from my childhood

to the present day and beyond, I bet

its a wonderful, energetic life

times of sadness and lots of laughter

and all I love and need around me, so

I`m blessed with happiness hereafter.
