When I come upon a new day and the joy of meeting the Lord in the morning

When I come upon a new day and the joy of meeting the Lord in the morning,

I feel a song well up in my heart and soul,

It is easy to love the Lord and to sing with him when you learn the joy that comes from serving a wonderful Lord,

Life is  not an easy task to summon our souls and flesh through with the meandering roads that fill our horizon,

It is not the easiest but the wisest of his children do see beyond the world we sit in,

Sight from souls who are pure in heart,

Seeking his face in all things,

Trusting only in him,

Lord I want to be this way too.

It is not every day that I come upon a bird saying farewell to another:)

It is not every day that I come upon a bird saying farewell to another,

I had been moving slowly down the city road,

A bird had been struck hours before I arrived to the scene,

Another Robin had moved its feet fast upon the tar and was saying goodbye to it,

My heart sank,

We humans so diligent in our own routines and our own pace never noticed the other animals much,

That day will always stay in my heart as it shows family in nature and love in nature,

I will keep that bird etched in memory peering at its loved one and saying goodbye always.
