Hope and Happiness
The Lord provides hope and happiness day by day,
This is God's blessing and way.
To live in a society both complex and divine,
This society both human and refined.
Talents respected and enhanced,
A chance to celebrate life and dance.
There is always hope for tomorrow,
God provides us with intelligent companions, perhaps only to borrow.
They are there for awhile,
Visiting with us on our isle.
Tomorrow they may have gone their independent way,
Perhaps they only stayed for a day.
Each day when the sun rises and the sun sets,
God's beauty is everywhere to appreciate yet.
To breathe the fresh air and to know God cares for us,
All relatives and friends each day and night, a friendship ever so bright.
Blessings so many and so kind and to return home to the Lord divine,
A God complex and refined, a good and loyal companion of mine.
