in some ways

in some ways
I felt older than I was

my health
family caregiver

now that I am old
those years
give me strength

answers to prayers
I did not know to pray . . .
verses of Psalms

Unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.
Psalm 25: 1 (KJV)

Sunday morning
music and books
I know by heart
yet always more
to learn

sometimes it seems
the older I grow
the more simple
my poems become

and yet they are
supported by years
all the ways life
challenges and grows

and I am grateful
for every day
and look forward
by God’s grace

Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.

From Psalm 2: 12 (KJV)
