Diane's Poems

Did You Ever Ask Why?

Did you ever ask why the stars are in the sky?

Did you ever ask many reasons we cry?

What is this life all about?

Can we stand up and support the war

Should we scream or must we shout?

Just what is the world all about?

I just wonder how so many people care

About this Land we call for the Freedom Cry

“Yes, I wonder why”

Many people die each and ever day

Most of my friends have passed away

My mother , my friends from the past

Sometimes, I wonder why am I here

When others have passed on

I feel I am not that strong.

I know Jesus will not put on me what I can not do

So, I ask to you

Did you ever ask why too.?

There is something that we have to do

I suppose I should not ask why

Just thank the Lord above and pray we serve him

Do not ask why, Do not cry, Just do the best every day

Be so grateful to Jesus, and do not forget to pray

Put him first in our hearts

Everything else will not see so far apart.

“Be grateful, and do not ask why”

The reasons will be revealed in the sweet by and by.
