BY SASHA GRAY
Dearest Lord,
Thank you for the little things
That fill my heart with hope.
For thinking of these little things
Sure seems to change the scope…
Budding flowers, seedling trees,
A warm afternoon and a cool summer breeze;
The lady bug, the butterfly,
Big puffy clouds in a baby blue sky;
The clover patch, the honey bee,
A Sunday brunch or afternoon tea;
The sparkle of a midnight star,
And wishing on it from afar;
The calming effect of an evening rain,
As it taps against the window pane.
For all these things I can’t complain!
So, when my life seems rough to me
I think of all your kindness brings,
And I find my spirits lifted up,
For you truly give my soul its wings.
Yes, Thank You Lord, for the little things.
