Because Of You Poem by Linda Ori

Because Of You

Rating: 5.0


You brought your light into my world
When life was cold and gray,
You taught me how to change my tune
From sad to light and gay;

I never in my wildest dreams
Expected such as you,
Just goes to show you never know
What little prayers can do!

If I had put my order in
You couldn't have been better -
Whatever I was looking for
You gave me to the letter;

People come and people go
They touch us in some way -
And then the person that we were
Starts changing day by day;

My life is not the same today
No longer sad and blue -
My sun is shining brightly now
And all because of you!

Linda, wow, this is just so beautiful. To say that to anyone, all I can say they must be very special. I given it my 10 and I'm sure that a lot of others will too. It is so readable. I loved every word it said. I liked it that much I'm going to make it one of my favourites. Thanks so much for sharing it. David

It does a world of good to know that one can effect anothers life in this way, And yet, like the rippling effect, your writting has a way of touching as well. Well Done Linda Geoff

'You taught me how to change my tune From sad to light and gay ' Your fantastic poem made me speechless. It says it all, therefore needs no credit. BTW the title reminded me of kelly clarkson's A-1 song 'because of you', a great association.

When you feel something strongly enough, you have no trouble laying it out on paper. Bravo Linda, Danny
