I'm Sorry Jesus Poem by Thomas Plotz

I'M Sorry Christmas Eve

I tried to be happy, tonight, on the eve of Christmas
The Eve of our Lord
You must be peeved, grieving with your head hanging low,
It was, touch and go, with tears and words

But, the past got the best of me, casting shadows of,
Remembering previous events
Feelings of an outcast, massed with inequities
With overwhelming impact

With a house, formerly I've been in,
Ghost and echoes running past
From other families, to other days of my life
For I walk a similar path, of the one I follow,
Down to military roll served, medals received, jobs done,
Agency's assigned to, and words said - last,

I do believe, we are programmed to say the grey,
Words that were said,
Actions felt, and rolls we played;
By More Than One, This Night! !
Also, the others who were here before, and
This time, with sway
In Christmas Eve Circles - Please PRAY, for me

I'm Sorry, to my family, I passed by! ! !
I'm Sorry, to my niece, for the short word, said
I'm Sorry, to God for offending you, with disappointment,

I know - you knew, what was, and always will happen
For you're the Lord!
Forgive me Jesus and bless me, and Happy Birthday!
