My Destiny - Reflections

My Destiny - Reflections

A Poem by Beatrice Boyle (Grandma Bea)
"

What is our destiny - why are we here?

"

Sometimes I sit and ponder Lord
"Why have you put me here?"
What great gifts do I have to offer"
None come to mind I fear
I was never a brilliant Scientist
Laboring to discover a cure
Nor am I a gifted Poet
Producing great literature
I'm not a learned Physician
With the power to save lives
Nor a Soldier in battle
Striving to survive
What was your Master Plan
When you chose to give me life?
Am I destined to live it forever
A victim of pain and strife?
When will my burdens be lifted?
Will I ever be free?
Lord, help me to understand
Why you have chosen me.

Nor am I a gifted Poet

I have to disgree with that line ~ you are a great poet
we are all destined to something and those that have
found the written word in Poetry/Prose verse are very
lucky to be able to express themself in such a lovely
manner~ Great WritE!
