Poetry: I just wanted to say

by Sherry Wheet

Created on: November 16, 2008

Thank You

This day and time, when someone commits an immoral act,

The time isn't right, or if they can't accept the fact.

They take a baby's life, without little regret.

Getting back to their life and the life they took, they forget.

So,dear Dad and Mom, with this thought in mind,

I want to say, thank you, for being so kind.

For being there for me from the very start,

Protecting me from the first beat of my heart.

You gave me the life that I now live,

For this, all my love I give.

I now have kids of my very own,

Without you, this could have not been done.

We all were blessed by your choice,

Now I want to stand and raise my voice,

I just want to say thank you again and again.

I know once is never enough; not even ten.

For I could never, ever your kindness repay.

I pray your reward will be in Heaven someday.

So, for all the generations that will come from your seed,

I just want to say thank you for your unselfish deed.
