Courtesy of God

For the love of my soul...is dawn’s first rays. The cool brisk air...at the start of each day. The glistening lawn...the chatter of birds. The feeling of home...I put into words. The sound of chimes...the feel of the breeze. The hymns of the wind...rustling the trees. The odes of the squirrels...as they scurry. Gathering food...‘cause fall’s in a hurry. Ivory clouds...over the morning sun. Courtesy of God...when day has begun. ________________________________ For Michael's "Inside the Heart" contest

I like this! I don't think people consider thanking God for the beautiful things we see everyday. I think a "loud" majority of us just blame Him for the bad stuff. This is a really lovely poem.
