This poem was on the AA board. I asked the person who found it online if I could share it all with you and she was delighted. So here ya go!
I took Step One, began to moan I can't do this one on my own. I took Step Two, began to pray Restore me God, please now, today. I took Step Three, gave up my will Maybe God could love me still. I took a Fourth, I looked inside Nothing more would I hide. And on the Fifth, I said aloud I've done some wrong, and I'm not proud. I took Step Six, and got prepared To lose the defects, I was scared. Now I'm at Seven, take them away My God, for this I do pray. And on Eight, the list was long Amends to make for all the wrongs. I took Step Nine, put down my pride Amends made, I will not hide. Step Ten I take, each day I pray I make amends along the way. And on Eleven I pray to know Each day His will, which way to go. I take Step Twelve, I'm like a bird To others now, I spread the word........
