Let's Be Grateful Poem by louis rams

We all have burdens that we must bare
And some with family we can share
Then there are the ones that answers we can't find
These are the ones we try to hide.
I have gone through this so many times before
And that's when I put it at GODS door.
We have to give thanks to all that GOD has given
To make this life so worth living.
We have food on our tables, clothes on our backs
A roof over our heads - and family and friends.
Most all of us have health problems but we survive
Under GODS watchful eyes.
Think of the homeless, the poor, the weak
That don't have food or something to drink.
Think of the slavery that is still around
Where women and children are kidnapped
And sold underground.
" LET'S BE GRATEFUL"to GOD above
Who sends his Angels to protect and love.
