I'm Not Alone

David Maggard 1948 (WV)

Free verse
I'm not alone within my life,
God gave me love and found my wife,
I'm not alone walking this land,
God walks with me and holds my hand.

I'm not alone from day to day,
God talks with me and guides my way,
I'm not alone at any time,
God shares his love that is sublime.

I'm not alone as you can see,
God listen now and grant this plea,
I'm not alone as blessings flow,
God let your grace forever show.

    This poem makes the point of God as an-everyday-company who never abandons one. God the love, the care-giver.
    The rhyme-scheme is well-done and the language is to the point.
    Good read!
