Murdo Girl…Opportunities

Mary Francis McNinch

Did I miss an opportunity to help someone’s day go better?

I’ve thought about it some and I’ve missed ten all together.

So far today…

I asked if you felt well. I knew you had been ill.

I didn’t wait for you to answer. I had no time to kill.

I have a stack of cards that I bought but never sent.

I thought I had some stamps, but I don’t know where they went.

I could give you a call, but I don’t want to be a pest.

If you’re not feeling well, you really need your rest.

I could text to say I’m praying for better days ahead.

Maybe I’ll just wait until another time, instead.

I’ll take a nap and then I’ll need to fix some dinner.

I’ll begin again tomorrow, though I’m not a good beginner.

I haven’t done a thing today to show someone else I care.

Today the preacher said opportunities are everywhere.

Excuse me …I need to make a call!
