A Place For Me

By: Grace E. Easley


There is a special place in life,
That needs my humble skill,
A certain job I'm meant to do
Nobody else can fill.
The hours are demanding,
and the pay is not too good.
And yet I wouldn't change it
for the moment if I could.
There is a special place in life,
A soul I must attain,
There is a mark that I must leave.
However small it be,
A legacy of love for those who follow after me.
There is a special place that only I may share,
A little path that bears my name.
Awaiting me somewhere.
There is a hand that I must hold.
A word that I must say.
A smile I must give,
For there are tears to blot away.
There is a special place in life,
That I was meant to fill.
A sunny spot where flowers grow upon a windy hill
There's always a tomorrow,
And the best is yet to be.
And somewhere in this world
I know there is a place for me!
