The Gift Of Love

The rivers that flow The clouds drifting by The sun that shines All treats to the eye The breeze that blows The bright shiny moon The grass that grows A warm day in June The warmth of summer The colours of autumn The snows of winter Making smiles broaden The sound of the rain The children at play The sound of thunder Feeling love every day The colour of flowers The laughter of a baby The sound of the waves Those trees so shady A roller coaster ride The thrill of found money A marching band A walk with your honey Comfort of easy chairs The thrill of first kiss The air that we breathe in The true gift of all this

dearest Jack, this is a nostalgic and soulful poem. I love what you captured in just a few lines. Your words touched my heart this morning making me grateful for my memories, nature, those precious experiences, and the air I breathe. I am grateful every day for the life God has given me on this plant. Have a splendid day. Hugs, Sara
