Simple Blessings by Farah Bazzrea

Simple Blessings
Every breath, the wind,
The sunshine, I feel in my veins.
The seasons of life offer no guarantee,
Only the breath that escapes our lips.

The view, from a hill the bare trees invite,
Like a window frame, a fly.
Listening, watching, as busy bees
Gather life’s pollen, after their dreams.

The natural sounds fascinate,
A bird, a squirrel, even the rain,
But the laughter and their songs,
Are sounds of the heart.

As I walk, I feel the earth,
As I breathe, I savor the air,
As I see, the spectrum fills me,
As I listen, music begs my soul to dance.

This world is a most gracious hostess,
Nurturing the miracle of life.
Capture each day with no survivors,
If you snooze, you lose! ©
