Blessings

New poem, written on the way home from Mass today.

“For Baby brothers

and eye shadow.

For friends,

relatives

hamburgers

snow.

For eggs in the nest

and food on the shelf.

For a bed and a pillow

all to myself.

For sunrise and sunset,

for flowers and trees

for birds, butterflies, bunnies, and bees

For a long flowy skirt

and a warm fuzzy hat.

For sisters and brothers,

and a cuddly cat.

For a mom and a dad,

for candy and treats,

for earrings and bracelets,

for phone time and sweets.

For living without

the fear of the sword

for my wonderful life

I thank you, Lord”

So?
