First Pain
Lord, I am learning,
in each and every way;
I'm to be broken.
almost every day.
Life's little lessons,
come only from you;
But most often of times,
they make us so blue.
Thinking years back,
to my very first pain;
Being all of three,
was a terrible strain.
Mommy and Daddy,
seemed to always fight;
And even then I knew,
it just wasn't right.
Mommy cried loud,
laying across the bed;
Drenched with tears,
and eyes so red.
I ran to her side,
holding tissues in my hand;
with tiny bare feet,
dirty with sand.
Memories of Mom,
were the last that day;
After that she simply
had gone far away.
Lord, I know your hand,
was upon me then;
For that's when you first,
took me in.
