I Just Close My Eyes Poem by JoAnn McGrath

I Just Close My Eyes


I just close my eyes and count to ten
Take a deep breath...a prayer...amen
I pray that things would go away
and not remain another day
Or just simple strength to understand
What it is that God has planned
It's hard to comprehend the stress
And feel the fear of will transgress
When day by day more troubles arrive
Then one ponders how to survive
That's when.........................sigh...
I just close my eyes
