I'm not wishing for diamonds <br />or my own money tree. <br />I'm not a fan of fancy things. <br />Those things...they just aren't me. <br /> <br />I wish to know my purpose <br />in this ever changing place. <br />I want to find my reason <br />for taking up this space. <br /> <br />To know I've done some soothing <br />to any aching heart. <br />To know I've made a difference... <br />that's how this year should start. <br /> <br />I wonder what I'm here for <br />and if I'm carrying my load. <br />What did God intend for me? <br />Am I on His chosen road? <br /> <br />My only wish on New Years <br />is to know I'm doing right. <br />I'll pray for this at bedtime <br />each and every night.<br /><br />Mary Nagy<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/my-only-wish-for-new-years/
