As cool breeze brushes my face
And I walk through the wet path
Filled with dried and crunchy fall leaves
I feel as if I am walking on the rainbow arc
Lovely and brilliant colors spread around
I feel light, bright, carefree and peaceful
I feel happy, content, joyful and serene
God is a brilliant and a loving artist
Who plays with colors and brings us joy
God loves us and He cares for us
He forgives us when we make mistakes
He heals us when we have a broken heart
He blesses our soul and protects us
He listens to us when we cry in pain
He holds our hands to guide and lead us
He is gracious, merciful and all knowing God
Thank you God for unaccountable blessings
Thank you God for saving us from anxiety
Thank you God for joy, love and enthusiasm
Thank you God for making my life better
And thank you God for each moment of learning
These are the moments when I can connect
Truly and sincerely with my merciful Lord
And I create the momentum of joyful emotions
And absorb happiness in my mind, body and soul.
