Waxing Poetic Wednesday: Spring Prayer

This month's poem was submitted by Brian Conley. Thanks babe!


SPRING PRAYER

For flowers that bloom about our feet; 
For tender grass, so fresh, so sweet; 
For song of bird, and hum of bee; 
For all things fair we hear or see, 
Father in heaven, we thank Thee!

For blue of stream and blue of sky; 
For pleasant shade of branches high; 
For fragrant air and cooling breeze; 
For beauty of the blooming trees, 
Father in heaven, we thank Thee!

-Ralph Waldo Emerson
