Today is so awesome and sublime,
Because you are in it,
because the sun shines,
Because the flowers bloom,
Because the birds are
singing their new song,
Because the butterflies
visits my garden,
Because the rain falls,
Because beautiful flowers grows
at the sides of the Brooke
which meanders
and finding its way around the
rock under the trees
in the mangrove forests.
Because everyone is smiling,
Because I heard the children laughing,
Because all things are beautiful,
Because of your love
the broken hearted
and the sick ones are healed,
And the ones who are bound are set free,
The needy and hungry are helped.
Because everything is working
out the way they should,
The good and not so good.
For all these my heart is grateful.
