Memories Poem by Mary Mc Creath

How long have I loved you,
Oh God of my heart?
Since childhood, near death
Did we meet….. did it start.

A vision was shown of
A choice I could make.
Come to you...and to bliss
Or to live on and take

Up a life that was given
To be part of a plan
That would grow and
Develop to show who I am.

In relation to you and
To all you create, in this
World that was then in
A terrible state.

To a world that's at war
With your vision and plan
For persons and countries
To do what they can.


To build peace with each other
And love every race.
Created by you
At this time, in this place

I've chosen to stay,
What can a child do
But offer its love given
By you.

To family and friends
To city lived in,
To country and allies,
And enemy to.

For all of us here are
A part of your plan
And each one is doing
The best that they can.
