Every Day I'm Wondering


I may not come this way again
so I enjoy it while I can,
every day I'm wondering
what exactly is God's plan?

September leaves as she came
like a dream or a ghost,
every day I'm wondering
what's important to me most?

The mornings are chilly
as are the nights,
every day I'm wondering
why have I fought the fights?

A losing battle from the start,
but I would not give to fear-
every day I'm wondering
why the hell am I still here?

Yo Passing shadows,

Snap out of it Hon, and smile.

This poem works okay for me.

Love Bobby

Dixie girl, every now and then these questions are like turbulences in our minds, but we are here still, my beautiful poetess, because we are meant to be. You are loved and you mean more to many people than you might think.
Thank you for sharing this, write, write and stay with us, we love you!
Be patient with yourself, you will soon feel well again and be able to enjoy life.
Love and hugs.
Margherita

A question we all ask at times, Dixie. I think we are here to learn, and learn we will, whether we like it or not. Sort of like going to school. I'm just trying to get to the next level so I don't have to repeat this one. Good luck.

Dear Dixie, you're here like us all my friend to face the next day and see what it brings, we all feel this way from time to time,there are smiles to be had and laughs to be shared, people and loved ones to meet and normal times that in themselves are miracles. Life is really good, you just have to face it and feel it. Take care myy friend, we are all here.

Maybe, darlin', you are here because you bring so much love with you.  Maybe you are here because if you had ice cream, you would share it with me.  Maybe you are here because we look for you - smiling when we see you.  Maybe you are here here just because ... there's no reason other than it's a plan none of us understand.

All I know is that I am glad that you are

I have often asked myself the same question. I have yet to get the answer. But, there is a reason. I should have died 51 years ago. But, I didn't. I survived.

Keep your chin up Dear Dixie, we are all pulling for you and it doesn't feel right

that one who writes such wonderful poems should feel a little bit down. Love to you.

Lindsay
