Life In General

My life these days just can't be beat
To be honest it's quite the treat

Blossom's blooming upon the tree
Hummingbirds feeding peacefully

Blue jays bouncing across the yard
They're just little birds playing hard 

The mountains truly seem to glow
All covered white with winters snow

I treasure life with its embrace
My soul is now a peaceful place

My mind is on quite a mission
Out to better its position

To me this life is like a dream
My love flows like a mountain stream

So crystal clear and full of life
I serve my Lord and love my wife

Write my rhymes for the world to see
Beauty of life's simplicity

I'm a man that has found his plight
By serving God and shinning bright

In general it is going well
That's in as far as I can tell
