This is an awesome read that has some wonderful thoughts. You touched upon a subject that folks often come to realize too late. Life and its many tasks should never be so taxing one cannot stop to appreciate the things around them. You said it beautifully. I like these two lines: "and it dawns on me that God's whole world is pulsing in sunlight."

    Bless you Dossie - crazy how we have to MAKE ourselves sit still for a moment, isn't it? :))

I agree, stop and smell the roses occasionally. Appreciate what is right there in your back yard and enjoy every minute. Life's too short to waste. Love the sound of this when I read it aloud.

regards, Jen

Pretty words telling of things that make you happy. Your words tell much of what should make us all happy and we sometimes seem to over look. Great writing.

Blue is my favorite color to stare upon. But for some reason, I don't wear anything blue if I can help it. Don't know why. Loved you poem. It was very well thought out and written. Loved the image of the bird. And thought the background colors were perfect for this writing.

I loved it! So happy and free spirited! It made ME want to sing. :) Loved "leap deep" , "hey you!" and "stroking me alive".

All of your words so aptly conveyed to the reader what it is that makes you happy. And that captured feeling was contagious. I could feel it! Wonderful imagery!

So well penned and presented. Thanks for sharing this lovely creation Sharyn.

I enjoyed reading about what makes you happy. You are right, that oftentimes it's the simple things. Your poem was a delight to read.

    Dennis, not only am I not offended, I'm flattered. Each of us has a different interpretation of God, and that's just fine. We meet in the middle sometimes, and I love that. He is ... everywhere, in all, in everything ... Blessings, as always - Sharyn

It made me happy to read this poem Sharyn. Some one actually asked me the other day what made me happy. My answer was just being alive. How I wish I'd had your delightful poem to read to them.

Your description of the day made me want to sing. So many colors of blue, Not just the blues of the sky, but also of the sea and the day itself. Not a blue day as is sad, but a day of blue and white.

Glorious is the work to describe this well written poem.

Thank you for sharing.
