What is a blessing in this life?

It is a kindly nod,

The sunshind of aa special smile

Bestowed on us by God.

 

As blessing is the timely hand

That stays calamity,

Ot keeps us calm and sensible

When there is tragedy.

 

It is each rung we reach upon

Our ladder to success,

And everything along out way

That brings us happiness.

 

A blessing is out loving spouse,

The baby in our arms,

And life itself upon this earth

With all its dreams and charms.

 

Each blessing means so very much,

We should take time to say

A prayer of gratitude to God

For helping us each day.
