A large snowflake floats to my hand, With intricate design - a sight to behold; A bright red cardinal soars through the air, Landing in branches of beauty untold. A blossom dances in the spring air, A kiss arrives from a child on my cheek; The summer sun warms my chilled skin, These are everyday blessings to me. There are warm clothes that hang in my closet, There's food on our table this night; A kitten runs franticly across the yard, As a barking dog gives it a fright. A chance to kneel and pray to my God, And sing to Him praises of glee; A moment of silence in this busy world, All are everyday blessings for me. I count my blessings and give thanks, But not just for the big ones, you see; For the smile of a friend, a pat on the back, Are everyday blessings for me.
