Lest We Lose Track of Our Blessings















I needed a small reminder
Of all in life that’s sweet,
Of all the things I’d overlooked
When this day was complete.

The many tasks still left undone,
The bills still not yet paid,
The goals, as yet unaccomplished,
All the mistakes I made

Were all that I could call to mind
As I stepped out to think,
Until a splash of vibrant gold
Zipped by, quick as a wink.

He settled on a nearby tree
And sang so merrily.
I needed a small reminder
And you sent one to me.
