WITH BLESSING LIKE THIS

Grateful to be alive
knowing of love such
as a child to strive
gentle soft her touch.

With Blessing’s like this
and with tears of pearl
how much this child I miss
who in my arms did curl?

Some dreams of castles
maybe of wealth untold
even life without hassles
but I of a child to hold.

What blessings to be shone
such sacred love to feel
knowing that I’m never alone
humbled in prayer to kneel.
