Heav’nly Treasures
With His mighty hands
Built the grandeur of nature
For us to enjoy
The wren’s cheerful song
God’s soft and tender whisper
To say we are loved
Pitter patter rain
Flow’rs trees patiently await
Life-giving showers
The gentle night breeze
Cools heat from the summer day
Tonight’s pleasant rest
Sunshine early morn
Warmth from the lingering chill
Let the day begin!
Sweet smile from a friend
Hugs kisses from those you love
Make the day worthwhile
Uncontrolled laughter
Friend’s joke that you can’t repeat
You will anyway
Familiar faces
Smiles from the computer screen
Zoom prayer meeting
Short list life’s simple pleasures
In these times heav’nly treasures
Brighten our spirits each day
Until the plague goes away

4aLove the format. I think we are breaking into a distinctive style of writing poetry. I could be totally naive. A lot there already maybe. Worthwhile self publishing our collective work for the record. Great poem btw. Dawn ushers in the Sun...always. Like. Fave.

4aThank you Brod. For liking & faving... Hhmmm... maybe we should, great idea. Last time I checked it will cost 3-4k to self publish about 50 books.

4aFortunate are they who know how to live life relishing the simple yet "Heavenly Treasures" amid the treacherous pandemic. Very nice poem amigo.

4aSalamat amigo. Yes the past few months have been challenging. I had to chastise myself often because of my negative attitudes and constantly remind myself how fortunate I am.
