Today, I Am Grateful For the Little Things

Today, I am grateful for the little things, the joy this life brings. We have not been sick, I have counted on God and not on a trick. Before I never had enough time. now I even have time to rhyme. Today, I am grateful for the little things, like hearing the wind chimes with their rings. As some went without, our cup runneth over and we did shout. Before time went by so very fast, now I can get more done since time seems to last. Today, I am grateful for the little things, it makes me want to flap my wings. This list is way too long, maybe I should make it into a song. I would sing we are together, no matter what the weather. Thank You God for your blessings, You have taught me many lessons.
