Poem Commentary

This one was actually inspired by a cousin of mine who's husband was in the hospital earlier this year with a very serious medical condition that could've killed him! They are both very young yet, and that would've been a huge tragedy - for her and their three young children!

As it all took place, my cousin had a couple of friends who really helped her out in her hour of need, and she wanted me to write a few words for her to give to them as a way of saying 'thank you' to such awesome people! Incidentally, her husband is doing fine now - Thank God!!!!!!!  

"Thank You!"

"How does one say thanks for such thoughtfulness and kindness?"
"Where does one find words of gratitude to fit such sweetness?"

"When life takes a wrong turn, and you don't know where to turn,"
"Before you know it, there's an angel at your doorstep, and calmness
finally returns."

"Fear not," He says, "for I am with thee, your ever-present help in time of need."
"Fear not," she says, "for I am an angel of God, and to you He has sent me."

"He knows when things aren't quite right, and fear is present."
"He hears you when you cry out, 'What am I going to do? Life has made a big dent!' "

"Just then, in some small way, He tells you, 'Fear not, for I am always near.' "
"Fear not, my child, for you are one of many that I hold dear!"

"You are never alone - I am always with thee."
"Fear not, my child, and hold on, Joy cometh in the morning."

"After the storm passes, and the calm finally returns,"
"You can finally enjoy the quiet for which, once, you had yearned,"

"All because God sent an angel of help and peace,"
"To aide you in life's dipair, which you thought would never cease."

"How do you say thank you for something such as this?"
"Where do you find words of gratitude to fit such joy and bliss?"

"Maybe a hug, or a card, or maybe even so much as dinner will do."
"All I know is that I am so very thankful that God Himself sent you!"

Thanks for the comment! I like to think that I inherited poetry writing from my mom. she did it quite a bit way back when she was younger, and I read one of her poems at her funeral! It was beautiful!

Thanks! It's kind of a different way of expressing what I feel sometimes!

Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
