Whenever the child (and cheezy) in me kicks in, I always recite this inspiring piece, which I learned during my elementary years in our local public school. I feel so vibrant and full of life. It does wonders into my being, whenever I am sad or mad. If you are young at heart, you will likely enjoy internalizing this poem.
All Things Bright And Beautiful
All things bright and beautiful,
All creatures great and small,
All things wise and wonderful:
The Lord God made them all.
Each little flower that opens,
Each little bird that sings,
He made their glowing colors,
He made their tiny wings.
The rich man in his castle,
The poor man at his gate,
He made them, high or lowly,
And ordered their estate.
The purple headed mountains,
The river running by,
The sunset and the morning
That brightens up the sky.
The cold wind in the winter,
The pleasant summer sun,
The ripe fruits in the garden,
He made them every one.
The tall trees in the greenwood,
The meadows where we play,
The rushes by the water,
To gather every day.
He gave us eyes to see them,
And lips that we might tell
How great is God Almighty,
Who has made all things well.
hi ting! very inspiring indeed. God bless.
