A Happy Song

I woke up feeling a little better early this morning. I managed to say what I wanted to say to a certain someone, and the shoulders felt much lighter.  I had a good day too, in the company of the family and loved ones, listening to their endless chatter and animated 'discussions.'  And at night,  I cuddled a bundle of warm fur who snuggled up close to sleep with me.

I have decided to listen to a simple but happy song, to further boost my spirits.
I used to listen to it as a child; when life was much slower and less complicated then.

"All Kinds of Everything"
-by Dana

Snowdrops and daffodils

butterflies and bees
sailboats and fishermen
things of the sea
wishing-wells
wedding bells
early morning dew
all kinds of everything remind me of you

Seagulls and aeroplanes
things of the sky
winds that go howlin'
breezes that sigh
city sights
neon lights
grey skies or blue
all kinds of everything remind me of you

Summertime
wintertime
spring and autumn too
Monday
Tuesday every day
I think of you.

Dances
romances
things of the night
sunshine and holidays
postcards to write
Budding trees
autumn leaves
a snowflake or two
all kinds of everything remind me of you.

Summertime
wintertime
spring and autumn too
seasons will never change
the way that I love you.

Dances
romances
things of the night
sunshine and holidays
postcards to write
Budding trees
autumn leaves
a snowflake or two
all kinds of everything remind me of you.

All kinds of everything remind me of you.
(especially for you, my Blue Butterfly)

Dear God
Thank you for all your blessings and benevolence
I submit before you in gratitude
Ameen
