Just Me

by Carolyn 'Deaton' Stephens




What do you see
When you look at me
Do you see character to follow
Or a life that's empty hollow

Am I the example I ought to be
When you look at me
Can I hold my head erect
Knowing I'm doing what God expects

When I'm about my daily task
Am I honest or wearing a mask
Can you trust I'm what you see
When you look at me

When I am on my bended knee
What do you see
Do you see a heart that's contrite
Striving always to do what's right

What do you see
When you look at me
Integrity, sincerity, and love I pray
Is what you see in me each day

Thanks to rajupoojar for the picture of the beautiful sunrise, each day is a new beginning, an opportunity... to be what we want to be...


I probably left out punctuation, the iambic pentameter is probably off, I just wrote it as it came out of me... but I sure do hope you enjoy the poem, it's just me. Thanks for reading.
:-) Carolyn
