Choices In My Life Poem by Ima Ryma

Since I was born, from life I've learned
That I can be bad or be good.
To which of those choices I turned,
I knew whether or not I should,
Because I'd been taught right from wrong,
A child of God given the choice
To live life, whether short or long.
The gift of conscience gave me voice
That, yes at times my will would err.
But if I asked, God would forgive.
And when death came sometime, somewhere,
With God I would go home to live.

I try to live my life as though
To heaven one day I will go.
