Grateful Am I

I never imagined in my wildest dreams, 
That I'd ever come to a village this small, 
Where the mountains never end or so it seems, 
And the songbirds herald the dawn with their call, 
Life here is serene with no traffic to beat, 
A golden sun and a star-filled sky to greet, 
People caring and kind, and roads lined with trees, 
Grateful to God for gifting me all of these.
