"Especially the Blue"
I ran into a stranger as he passed by.
"Oh, excuse me please" was my reply.
He said, "Please excuse me too;
I wasn't even watching for you."
We were very polite, this stranger and I.
We went on our way and we said good-bye.
But at home a different story is told,
How we treat our loved ones, young and old.
Later that day, cooking the evening meal,
My daughter stood beside me very still.
When I turned, I nearly knocked her down.
"Move out of the way," I said with a frown.
She walked away, her little heart broken.
I didn't realize how harshly I'd spoken.
While I lay awake in bed,
God's still small voice came to me and said,
"While dealing with a stranger, common courtesy you use,
But the children you love, you seem to abuse.
Look on the kitchen floor,
You'll find some flowers there by the door.
Those are the flowers she brought for you.
She picked them herself, pink, yellow and blue.
She stood quietly not to spoil the surprise,
And you never saw the tears in her eyes."
By this time, I felt very small
And now my tears began to fall.
I quietly went and knelt by her bed;
"Wake up, little girl, wake up," I said.
"Are these the flowers you picked for me?"
She smiled, "I found 'em, out by the tree.
I picked 'em because they're pretty like you.
I knew you'd like 'em, especially the blue."
I said, "Daughter, I'm sorry for the way I acted today;
I shouldn't have yelled at you that way."
She said, "Oh, Mom, that's okay. I love you anyway."
I said, "Daughter, I love you too,
and I do like the flowers, especially the blue."
Are you aware that: If we die tomorrow, the company that
we are working for could easily replace us in a matter of days.
But the family we left behind will feel the loss for
the rest of their lives.
And come to think of it, we pour ourselves more into work
than to our family - an unwise investment indeed.

Correction:
I received this in regards to the piece "A Letter From
Heaven" that ran on 12-01-01:
Dear sir, This poem was written somtime in 2000 by
my father Charles L Sanders. It is copyrighted.
The full title is "A Letter From Heaven".
There is 1 line missing from the poem in this section.
"It's good to have you back again,
you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, They'll be here later on.
I need you here badly, you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help mortal man."
My family has no problem with you passing the poem along,
but we request that you correct the title and the missing
line, and add his name to the poem. By the way I was there
when he wrote the poem. I have included the original
copyrighted poem for your use.
Sincerely,
Russ Sanders
