My Little Blue Pillow

I have blessings great and small, I thank the Lord for them all. This one means so much to me, I'm sharing it for all to see.

I went for surgery one year, I admit to having doubts and fears. For they would work inside my heart, and try to fix that aging part.

When I arrived, there on my bed, was a little blue pillow for my head. I couldn't know, I did not see, how much that pillow would mean to me.

Somehow it calmed me, gave me peace, when I from pain did seek relief. I made sure it came home with me, when they finally granted sweet release.

As I write it rests behind my head, that little blue pillow I found on my bed. It stays in my recliner chair, I search the house if it's not there.

I wonder who could have made this thing, that's helped to take away my pain. I wish I knew, so I could say, thanks for knowing what I needed that day.

I looked at my little blue pillow today, faded from washing and a little stained. The comfort it affords me still, the love it was made with is a thing I feel.

I thank my Lord who's up above, for that one who worked to share His love. I think she prayed as she was sewing, a blessing for the one to whom it was going.
