A Good and Blessed Day

Sometimes, we have had a good and blessed day But we failed to acknowledge that fact The weather was as beautiful as a peacock It was sunny and the visitors were observing the bay The birds were chirping and hopping all day long The children were out there playing in the park The dogs were so jolly that they did not bark And the cats were cleaning the bowl with their tongue Sometimes, we have had a good and blessed day We take everything for granted, like it is nothing We don't appreciate it and don't count our blessings It is six o'clock, let's recite the angelus. Let the bell rings We're blessed and lucky to be alive; it's time to pray It's time to thank the Almighty; and it's time to sing.
