Raymond A. Foss Poems

Back to Poems Page

Thinking back a bit
the words of the pastor
my Christian faith
a gift especially given
each one in a unique way
placed within our lives
unearned, only accepted

This is our choice
free will given too –
a perspective on life,
consequences in the choosing.

Being glad, in giving thanks
in the present,
looking toward the future
a new thing, a gift of God
emerging now
the hand of God
within the changes
and better days ahead.
