"Lost and Found"
A very special poem, by a very special man!!
He was coming home from his first day of school
Excited to tell his Mom of all the new rules,
Taking shortcuts and all cost
This young boy was determined not to get lost.

He took a wrong turn somewhere along the way
Crying, confused, and scared he began to pray,
Oh God, oh God he cried from his heart
Help me find my way back to the start.

As it had happeded so many times before
This little boys prayers would not be ignored,
Kneeling, crying, pleading on the ground
By the grace of God, he was sure to be found.

On through life and several years past
He questioned God how long his love would last,
Confused and still lost, he traveled along
Asking God daily if he even belonged.

Of course his God answered him everyday
Even on the days he chose not to pray,
You see, God is the answer, that much is true
Whether you are lost or found, God is within you.

His Mother passed and he screamed out why
God comforted the man, and said it is ok to cry,
This man finally found peace within himself throughout the days
Realizing when he felt lost God was sure to show him the way.

The day had arrived, and by the means of a dove
He had been reunited with the girl he loves,
He may have bad days along with the good
But God will be there with him, because He said He would.

He is bound to have questions somewhere along the way
But the best way to get the answer is simple, just pray,
As he stands and prays over his Mothers grave in the ground
He thanks God and tells his Mom the he has been found.
