A letter to God By Sharon Maria Moemise Dear God, please accept my now crumpled letter Wherein I ask Thee for a life that is so much better from the one I've been tossed into for far too long where all that is good and right is but sold for a song I have a few questions for thee as well dear Lord Which I hope will make me wiser, if a response I afford Why, dear Lord, do innocent babies bear the horrible brunt of the blows adults throw when it is thee they do affront? Why, dear God, do people get away with heinous crime and satan enter the lives of the young at the promise of a dime Where the weak suffer and the stronger only get stronger and make the believers in God have doubt in their Redeemer? Dear Lord our God, I thank You, for another year to my life Allowing me to embrace all toward which I strive For bestowing possibilities and chances galore and making my view on life better than before I'm grateful, Lord, to feel heavy rain on my dry skin For hearing my payers as I beg forgiveness for my sins And have the rays of Summer's heat beat upon me From thy forever faithful servant, and true I always be.
