A poem from my book entitled Slices of Life. I had this booklet published and copyrighted in 1997, while residing at Elliot Lake, Ontario.

I would like to share this poem with your reading subscribers. I've recently written about 15 more, and plan to have all poems (approximately 61) republished if I can find a publisher willing to do them. They deal with all aspects of life (birthdays, anniversaries, war, death, loneliness, seasons, etc.).

God's Gifts

God has given us
trees and flowers
Lofty mountains
And deep, blue seas.

He has given us
Birds and insects
All creation for us to please.

God has given us
quenching rains
And snow on mountaintops.

He has given us
Pure, fresh air
And tiny 'forget-me-nots.'

God has given us many gifts
His kindness can't be beat

Let us thank Him
For all these things
That make our lives complete.   Submitted By: NULL
