YOU

by

Norma Jean Duncan

Have you ever really considered
How rare and important YOU are
Have you ever really thought
How one change of events could
Have changed the very fact
Of whether or not there was a YOU.

What if on the night you were concieved
Your parents had quarreled
Instead of making love and YOU
What if they had been too tired
Or she would have said no
Then there would have been NO YOU.

Just suppose your mom and dad
Had married another partner
Would there have been a YOU
Just suppose they were divorced
Or decided upon an abortion
Where then would YOU be?

Does this help YOU understand
How rare and important YOU are
Does this help YOU to be thankful
To the God who let it be
Does this help YOU give thanks
For the life which is YOU
