April Showers
Life is a splendid thing, for sure Or could be, quite a lot, For being showered with loving friends Is for sure, the nicest thing we've got. God's been watering all our hearts Of this we do not doubt, For in planting only lovely things We get the good things out. If we've got some love to share With a friend all tried and true, We can sure feel sort of cozy Tucked under God's heaven so blue. But sometimes these days it pours with rain And we can hit some right raw mud, But when we patch it up with loving We get to chuckle at the fun. Wasn't God so nice to make the cloudy skies Come out with all the sunny hours Then in rolling out the cutest kids He planted all the flowers. This place is not all bad yet From all the praying on our knees, Because then it has a kinder face With all the nicest you and me's. God gives us all a healthy bite to eat And with more than enough to spend, Is generous too, to share even A little extra to lend. These days we find there's way too much Of shoving just to get, So we need to leave a lot more space For loving others yet. I do thank our caring Heavenly Father Our brightest morning star, That He is keeping watch so things Will be so blessed, just as they are. I want to send you lots of happy thoughts And prayers for God to bless you every day, With the softest of April showers To bring you the loveliest flowers in May. |
