PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

If we'd only count our blessings,

All the treasures we possess,

Instead of just complaining

Of our troubles and distress;

We could find that good outmeasures

All the bad that comes our way,

We'd find our days of sunshine

Would outnumber those of gray.

If we'd count the ones who love us,

Count our friends and joys we share;

See the blooms along life's pathway

Overlook the brambles there.

We'd rejoice instead of whining,

Have more hope...our race to run.

If we'd only count our blessings

And give thanks to everyone.
