Sharing My Blessings
Aesthetic works, I think I’ve some,
Creative stage or room decorations? My pleasure. I can.
Compassionate heart, I got especially for young and old,
Drum skill? I could be one of your band members, just call.
Experience in teaching is ample, I do in God’s Glory,
Friends are like flowers, sharing with you unselfishly.
Gospel of our Lord, please read at longer time with me,
Happiness and laughter, please join. Are you ready?
In bad times you can cry on my shoulders,
Joyful journeys give lots of fun, let’s go together.
Keepsakes are treasured from my pleasant travels,
Listening to you is added when you’re weary or in trouble.
Some musical instruments, I played for you,
No recorder yet. Just guitar, ukulele and piano.
Speed in typing, I’ll be your secretary for free
Painting and poetry are my gifts, if you like or agree.
Quotes and stories with your request, I can write,
Room to sleep? Well, whole day or overnight?
Smiles are on my lips into your lips each day
Time is valuable, is our appointment okay?
Ups and downs of my life, may I also share?
Victories and failures and when luck is rare
Well-done battle in adversity, blessings in His care
Xylophone playing, Oh I forgot! Or will I call it lyre?
Yummy foods? If I’ve some, bring your girl or lad
Zest to help and share are joyful ways of Thanking God!

Inspirations :
Contest prompt but this poem is not for the contest
Song: I Thank you Lord for Your Blessings On Me
(One of my fave songs to play on ukulele)
My motto: “ Sharing is my great happiness”
I share poems on special occasions like birthdays, house blessings, newborn baby, job retirement, job promotion, farewell to a friend and others.
I also encourage my dear friends and relatives to write poems by recommending a good poetry site and poetry group at facebook. Eight years ago, I invited a friend here at poetrysoup. She couldn't register, so she gave me her account name and a password and I created one for her in this site. Then, a second cousin of mine has requested me to help her create an account here during my vacation back home in my country. I've also created accounts for my nieces at poetry fbs. So far, I got 2 nieces who dearly love writing poetry and kept on posting at fb. I also keep on encouraging friends and students to paint and play musical instruments by teaching them the basics.
