Sky breaks through the morning clouds<\/p>\n
bestowing healing Light,<\/p>\n
Bathing Lands in beams of heat<\/p>\n
And energy just right,<\/p>\n
To strengthen crops, all animals<\/p>\n
And even you and me-<\/p>\n
this Blessing of the morning<\/p>\n
was meant for all to see.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
At this time,<\/p>\n
in early morn<\/p>\n
I bend my head and pray<\/p>\n
Thankful for the many gifts I have<\/p>\n
From day-to-day!<\/p>\n
From eyes that see the beautiful hills<\/p>\n
To ears that hear the stream<\/p>\n
I am blessed with these wonderful senses<\/p>\n
That allow me to live my dream.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Capturing the natural Beauty<\/p>\n
With camera in hand,<\/p>\n
I venture far and wide<\/p>\n
For pictures of this Land.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
To celebrate its glory and,<\/p>\n
Sing its praises too,<\/p>\n
Today, I am writing this<\/p>\n
especially for YOU!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
