My Gratitude Towards Life

By Vaagai Viji

I thank God, for keeping me alive to see the beautiful sunrise,

And the music which mesmerize.

Innocent smile of kids,

Scudding clouds and gentle breeze.

Cheerful dance of the butterflies 🦋

Trees touching the pristine sky.

Mesmerizing colours of the rainbow,

The gigantic curves of the flowing rivers.

Yes, I thank God for keeping me alive with these,

And I pray deeply for the next generation of busy bees.
