Counting our Blessings

Comparing our special gifts
as we count our blessings

we need to make sure and double it,
for the miracles we share

knowing we are not alone
someone cares about us

when we are down and out
calling with our all

sometimes, where we hear nothing,
only in silent echoes

which ripple through our lives
when we do find strength

moments we are alone
freed from the distraction of the day

balancing our worlds upon our inner focus
awakening once again giving time for us to pray

masking the comforting rhythms of familiar sounds
much like the sighted having fears of going blind

Remembering the less fortunate than you and i
Do you and yours cry for them, perhaps sometimes

Or is your belief in the common good …a lie?
Memories are a double-edged sword

not to be turned in anger against us
with all the love stored in our hearts

we should live forever.
Remember, we are all in this together

So, as we give
and it will come back

in many ways
in friendships

which double our capacity
to give

feeds us,
as we live it

find someone
as true to themselves

as they are true to you,

With the creators blessing

watch its glow extend
To everything about you

in everything say or do

So, we cannot ever
run out.

Living
and giving love
