Analysis of Time to Share
Binding supplies,
Printing supplies,
On the way, Lord,
Time to print and bind,
Not looking to get rich,
Just looking to share,
Past time,
Like an overdue
Library book,
Lord help me,
Move forward,
Ever forward,
Many years I have
Written, through
Pain, through tears,
Lost my wife in September
2006,
I want to good, she encouraged
Me to write,
To share,
To do,
To care.
Past time,
Past due,
May reach only one
Person with my verse.
