I like this poem is somebody from here
Make Me Strong in Spirit
Make me strong in spirit
Courageous in action
Gentle of heart
Let me act in wisdom
Conquer my fear and doubt
Discover my own hidden gifts
Meet others with compassion
Be a source of healing energies
And face each day with hope and joy
Here for another day sober and clean.
Make Me Strong in Spirit
Make me strong in spirit
Courageous in action
Gentle of heart
Let me act in wisdom
Conquer my fear and doubt
Discover my own hidden gifts
Meet others with compassion
Be a source of healing energies
And face each day with hope and joy
Here for another day sober and clean.

Here's one for Dee and anybody else who's anxious about their situation.
"Touch Of Grey"
Must be getting early, clocks are running late.
Paint by number morning sky, looks so phony.
Dawn is breaking everywhere, light a candle, curse the glare
Draw the curtains I don't care 'cause it's alright
I will get by, I will get by, I will get by, I will survive.
I see you've got your fists out, say your piece and get out.
Guess I get the gist of it but it's alright
Sorry that you feel that way.
The only thing there is to say
Every silver lining's got a touch of grey
I will get by, I will get by, I will get by, I will survive.
It's a lesson to me
The Ables and the Bakers and the C's
The ABC's we all must face
To try to keep a little grace
It's a lesson to me
The Deltas and the East and the Freeze
The ABC's we all think of
To try to give a little love
I know the rent is in arrears, the dog has not been fed in years
It's even worse than it appears but it's alright
Cow is given kerosene, kid can't read at seventeen
The words he knows are all obscene but it's alright
I will get by, I will get by, I will get by, I will survive.
It's a lesson to me
The Deltas and the East and the Freeze
The ABC's we all think of
To try to keep a little love
The shoe is on the hand it fits, there's all there really nothing much to it
Whistle through your teeth and spit 'cause it's alright
Oh, well, a touch of gray, kinda suits you anyway,
That's was all I had to say but it's alright
I will get by, I will get by, I will get by, I will survive.
It's a lesson to me,
The deltas and the East and the free
The ABC's we all must face,
Try to save a little grace.
We will get by. We will get by. We will get by. We will survive
We will get by. We will get by. We will get by. We will survive
