Listening to the birds cheerfully chirping outside
and catching a glimpse of a lone buck on the hill
while a cool summer breeze plays with my hair,
I can't help but praise God for all of my blessings,
my happy life, my loving husband,
and I take a deep breath, toss my head back,
and I smile at the wonder of it all.
I am alive, and I am loved,
and I owe it all to my Heavenly Creator.
Life is good, even with its ups and downs,
its ins and outs, and I find it all so splendid!
