I opened the screen door to a silvery crescent moon In the east, a red spring sun rises What beauty God has in store each day If only we opened our hearts to receive the prizes All day long, beauty and surprises presented One time there was a brown thrasher Over in the birdbath washing with delight A little later four starlings were splashers Each moment of the day there was a new gift Joy overflowed with each delight The only problem was I couldn't jot down About my day's awesome highlights

Andrea, if only we soaked in the gifts from God through nature each day, we could be more relaxed, joyous, and fulfilled. Thanks for the visit. Sara K

Thank you, Valsa. I appreciate the nice review. I agree we need to be thankful, or we lose sight of what is important in life. Sara K
