Poetic Bloomings Saving

Saving Blessings

When it seems I’ve done nothing

In my life from day to day

Just the same old to-do list

Sun-up till I hit the hay

I look into my journal

to read what I have saved there

I see that I’ve been busy

And that God does hear my prayer

I savor those special times

Which come as God’s surprises

Some are very plain to see

And some come in disguises

A missed appointment gives time

To chat with a special friend

A nap gives me energy

To bring projects to an end

I highlight in my journal

All the things I’m thankful for

So when depression tempts me

I show it what I have stored
