Today, upon a bus, <br />I saw a girl with golden hair <br />And wished I was as fair <br />When suddenly she rose to leave, <br />I saw her hobble down the aisle <br />She had one leg and wore a crutch <br />But as she passed, she smiled <br />Oh God, forgive me when I whine <br />I have two legs the world is mine <br /> <br />I stopped to buy some candy <br />The lad who sold it had such charm <br />I talked with him, he seemed so glad <br />If I were late, it `d do no harm <br />And as I left, he said to me, <br />'I thank you, you've been so kind <br />You see, ' he said, 'I `m blind' <br />Oh God, forgive me when I whine <br />I have two eyes the world is mine <br /> <br />I saw a child with eyes of blue <br />He stood and watched the others play <br />He did not know what to do <br />I stopped a moment and then I said, <br />Why don't you join the others, dear? <br />He looked ahead without a word <br />And then I knew, He couldn't hear <br />Oh God, forgive me when I whine <br />I have two ears the world is mine <br /> <br />With feet to take me where I `d go <br />With eyes to see the sunset's glow <br />With ears to hear what I'd know <br />Oh God, forgive me when I whine <br />I have blessed indeed, the world is mine <br /> <br />May Peace to All <br />Latif jan Afridi <br />Mon,11, May,2009<br /><br />Lateef Jan Afridi Ab.latif jan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/oh-god-forgive-me-when-i-whine/
