A beautiful poem: --- The World is Mine -------------------- Today, upon a bus, I saw a very beautiful woman, And wished I were as beautiful. When suddenly she rose to leave, I saw her hobble down the aisle. She had one leg and wore a crutch. But as she passed, she passed a smile. Oh, God, forgive me when I whine. I have two legs; the world is mine. I stopped to buy some candy, The lad who sold it had such charm, I talked with him, he seemed so glad, If I were late, itd do no harm. And as I left, he said to me, I thank you, youve been so kind. Its nice to talk with folks like you. You see, he said, Im blind. Oh, God, forgive me when I whine. I have two eyes; the world is mine. Later while walking down the street, I saw a child I knew. He stood and watched the others play, but he did not know what to do. I stopped a moment and then I said, Why dont you join them dear? He looked ahead without a word, I forgot, he couldnt hear. Oh, God, forgive me when I whine, I have two ears; the world is mine. With feet to take me where Id go, With eyes to see the sunsets glow, With ears to hear what Id know. With loving family & friends to enjoy life Oh, God, forgive me when I whine, Ive been blessed indeed, the world is mine. ------- If this poem makes you feel thankful, Just forward it to your friends. After all, its just a simple reminder that we have so much to be thankful for! Give the gift of love. It never comes back empty😊
