Behind Me Poem by Carolyn Ford Witt

BEHIND ME

Behind me stands a Mountain,
He's stood there from the start.
He sent me in the beginning
And remains here in my Heart.

His kiss good-bye did bless me
As I entered into this existence
And because I chose this varied life
There was no fained resistance.

He's been there with me through the years
Under every kind of condition
And gladly dwelt within my heart
When I'd ask for His Attrition.

Each day He stands there massively
To shore up this small frame,
Teaching love and happiness
Emotions, so long, too tame.

And now, in age, He stands there
Supportive at my side
For soon my life will be over
And I'll go for that last long ride.

There behind me stands a Mountain
He stood there from the start
And when my time is o'er,
Father, with You, I will depart.
