AS FOR THIS DAY
By Allie Katts
So far today I have done alright
I haven't gossiped about anything
I haven't lost my temper at all
I haven't been greedy for anything
I haven't been grumpy or grouchy
I haven't been selfish
or self centered
Boy am I ever glad about that
but in a few minutes
I am going to get out of this bed
then I'm surely going to need
lots of help in staying calmed
and relaxed all day
from all the pain that is in my body.
Help me endure this pain
that many of us
suffer through chronic illness.
It is hard not to be grumpy
or self-centered
It is hard to accept
and not let the pain
take over our lives
Dedicated to all who suffer from
chronic illness
