Today

Today I will begin anew
planting flowers in my garden,
making life grow in colorful clouds.

Today I will pray for lost souls,
and ask God to take control.

Today I will make a pledge
that I will make a difference in the lives of many
and pray that he sends those who are on the edge.

Today I will inhale all life has to offer me.
I will not waste my time because time is not free.

Today I will sing a song and say a prayer too.
That all I do will help the world
see that giving from the heart is the right thing to do.

A well rendered moment of reflection and decision, and the foundation that allowed you to get there.

Such a happy and inspirational piece. Thank you for sharing! [♥]

If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.
