The scent of red roses
Drips of morning dew
One tiny infant smiles
How sweet the sound, her coo
A puppy nurses sweetly
On it's mothers breast
Words that surely encourage
Causes another to be blessed
Offenses quickly forgiven
Sorrows turned to happiness
New clothes, new shoes
Offered to a hopeless-homeless
These few simple reminders
Let us recall such blessings
May we be forever thankful
And never sweat the small things

never sweat the small things...how right that is, and yet how hard it seems to grasp. I know I must wake up every morning and teach myself that lesson again and again.
Very nicely done. Thank you for the entry, and good luck!

Thank you so much
For this reminder. That work as hectic as it is. If not life threatening. Is NOT all that important that we can let ourselves to get all wound up over it. I am thankful I got to read this one.
