Received a simple brown paper bag <br />in my mail box today. <br />And on the lable was a message <br />With these questioning words did say. <br /> <br />It read; 'What if everything that you own <br />fit inside this bag? ' <br />It made me stop to reflect what was typed <br />on more then that plain white sticky tag. <br /> <br />It was a simple message in this materialistic world <br />It didn't need to be adorned, <br />with fanciness bling and pearls. <br />Reminding me of a simpler day <br />wondering when it was it all slipped away? <br /> <br />I have more then this small bag would ever hold <br />with family, friends and love. <br />Of all God's grace and His forgiveness <br />sent to me from up above. <br /> <br />More then just Brown paper bag, <br />was placed in my mail box today. <br />It helped me to remember just why <br />and what was more important <br />in a much, more, simpler kind of way.<br /><br />Linda Winchell<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/brown-paper-bag/
