Blessings

Reaching a new year with a gleeful mood
Under a lucky star and a bright moon.
Guardian angels showing path of grace
Flowing and enlightening is my Faith.
An inspiring feel stirring me to rhyme
Enraptured by the warmth of wintertime.
Great blessings with every respiration
Beauty I owe to each inspiration.
God’s will sets a world for a devotee
Nature's wonders and a bel esprit.
Brimming with hope now, and ever I pray
A gift of life, health and wealth everyday.
When my time is rough, I turn tough and bold
From losses I learn and gain truths of gold.
My own paths I set of wishes and dreams
Shaded by love and light that ray and gleam.
For all gifts granted I praise God and bow
With every rebirth I renew my vows.
Heaven on earth I treasure and revere
To all my dearest ones, Happy New Year.

I agree w/the other talented poetesses/poets ... this is such a beautiful poem, Besma! An instant fave. Here is a soothing serene sound for the ears. It's "In the Rain" by Brian Simpson. Have a blessed New Year. Love and more love always. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F1eW8McWPdg

You've graced your ardent reader once again with an inspiring beauty from your talented pen, dearest Besma. The new year is a time of rebirth and renewed attitude.. Heaven on earth is a state of being, a state of mind, spirit and heart.. living a life of gratitude, brimming with hope and faith, shadowed by a love so big and a light so bright, enraptured by winter warmth and inspiration, joie de vivre - a blessing among many indeed! Your blissful poetic verse does ring true with optimism and sweet dreams for the new year. A brilliant poem from a poetess with a refined heart and a poetic gift. May all your new year wishes come true, dear poetess, and may your new year be filled with cherished love, happiness and light. Love, hugs and kisses, my wonderful friend and soul sister. God bless you..~Susan

What an amazing poem of hope, for the new year...beautiful sentiments Besma, especially the last 4 lines... Earth should have peace, but I don't think we can have heaven on Earth though..Who knows what the new year will hold, however, I hope you have a wonderful new year and I look forward to more of your great poetry..
