So many things in life are blessed.
A puppy’s kiss, a woman’s breast,
A warmed bed, an earned day of rest,
The sun that shines, an eagle’s nest,
A fast-racing horse or two abreast,
Clouds playing tag on mountain crest,
A dove’s call to her chicks in nest,
A pure soul revealed, undressed,
An A plus earned on a high school test.
As for me, I’ve kept close the best,
My love asleep, cheek on my chest.
