Poetry

Oh Lord!

Oh lord! I thank you for the blessing;
I slept in peace with the shine of a moon,
and woke up happy with the rise of a Sun.

Oh lord! I thank you for the blessing;
I rejoiced the serenity of the spring in full blossom,
and filled my lungs with abundant aromatic scents.

Oh lord! I thank you for the blessing;
I saw cuckoos and song thrush in the woods,
entertained with melodious song,
and danced to nature’s rhymes and rhythm.

Oh lord! I thank you for the blessing;
I giggled, smiled, and laughed the whole day,
cherished all those fun-filled moments.

Oh lord! I thank you for the blessing;
I enjoyed more happiness and joy,
under your wings of protection.

Oh lord! I thank you for the blessing;
for the infinite love showered upon me,
which I nurtured to full maturity and flourished.

Oh lord! I thank you for the blessing;
I had the best of the times, day and night,
everything sailed smoothly through the ocean of calmness.

Oh lord! I thank you for the blessing;
I had everything in my life,
my life be flooded with pleasure without any measure,

I am the richest man of my selfdom.
