Thank you for this perfect day
A lot of play... a little graze

Ice held up to deep blue sky
The look of fun within your eye
God bless these here sheltered walls
These flowers
and our power tools
Laughs and games
of chasing lions
Time to play and play and dance
and dance and fly a moment, freely
leaning back, a great big wheelie...
three kids shine, a train on a slide
are we on show? Or do we hide?

I would till the land for you
and plant the seed the whole day through
so we might feast come harvest time
and sing and dance and dance and shine

I'd give this gift,
if it were mine--
who just received and passed the rhyme--
So bless the lord for his design,
or Lady Luck for rolling fives--
which hand, in hand, may come alive.

Let's relish in this perfect day
and sway the cool, calm night away
In moments of eternal play
We rise
and rise
and rise
and lay
