Poetry: What I'm thankful for

by Mani Jack

Created on: November 12, 2009

Excitement breeds a forgetful mind,

about things we claim mine,

But at any time,

when Jesus touches your line,

taking things you love to say MINE,

you faint you almost blind.

Sadness breeds tears,

to those who does not have fear,

for the ONE who brought us here,

Sadness means the heart wins,

while happiness means satan wins,

to make you forget Jesus Christ,

who rises along your cries,

Sadness is GREAT,

as it teaches us to be glad,

for everything we have and had.

Earth is never meant to be heaven,

as it is a place for us to learn,

that being thankful is the road to heaven.
