Sitting around the house one day, <br />I stopped to consider this, <br />Why am I upon this earth, <br />If it's Heaven that I miss? <br /> <br />So I asked the Lord of Heaven, <br />Could you please tell me why, <br />You have brought me into this world, <br />And here was his reply. <br /> <br />My dear son Franklin, <br />Before the universe would ever be, <br />I had you in my heart in love, <br />By faith you came from me. <br /> <br />I made the Heavens and the Earth, <br />A temporary place to call home, <br />You had to leave me for a while, <br />But I left you not alone. <br /> <br />I put music and poetry in your heart, <br />To share with others all around, <br />To tell the message of my love, <br />And where it can be found. <br /> <br />So do not be weary my son, <br />Your coming home I promise you, <br />Just share with all the people, <br />What I have shared with you. <br /> <br />Author <br />Franklin Spriggs <br />August 15,2008<br /><br />Franklin Spriggs<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-asked-the-lord-this-question/
