TWENTY-EIGHT YEARSA Poem by El din Cal
TWENTY-EIGHT YEARS Lord Jesus I thank you for allowing me to see twenty-eight years Twenty-eight years of mercy and not of fear Twenty-eight years of divine grace Thank you for allowing me to seek your face Thank you for allowing me to taste To touch To feel to enjoy Thank you for life itself Thank you for supernatural health Thank you for provision from your eternal wealth Thank you for your gifts That you would see fit To cleanse my lips with your finger tips Thank you for being the captain of my ship Thank you for leading me and guiding me along the way Thank you for rainy and sunny days Thank you for leading me through troubled waters Thank you that you have blessed me to one day marry one of your daughters Thank you for constantly freeing me form the power of sin Thank you for being my King Thank you Lord for dwelling within Thank you for dying on the cross Thank you for carrying my burdens that you did bear Thank you for drying up my tears And for being there for me even in my nightmares Thank you for wonderful dreams Thank you for delivering me from dangers seen and unseen Thank you for divine healing Thank you for being the only person in this universe that understands and knows how I’m feeling I thank you again for life And for showing me my wife Thank you for allowing me to properly breathe Thank you for supplying all my needs From your riches in glory by Christ Jesus indeed And for showing me how to sow good seeds Thank you for your spirit I am no longer timid I am now bold Thank you Lord for allowing me to live to be twenty-eight years old © Copyright 2008 Eldon M Thomas An excerpt from My Rhyme Journal For copies of my books Hit me up at [email protected] or reach me at 973-735-4496 or go to www.authorhouse.com type in my name (eldon m thomas) and my full length first book will pop up and on www.ebay.com my chapbooks are listed just type in my name (eldon m Thomas) also blackplanet.com/elkal321 has a lot of poems Peace and Hair Grease Eldin Cal © Copyright 2008 Eldon M Thomas Eldon M Thomas (1980-) attended and graduated from Orange High School in Orange, New Jersey, joined the United States Marine Corps on July 6th 1998, served for four years, and got an Honorable Discharge from Headquarters Battalion, First Marine Division on July 5th 2002.
