Just Today

Just today, I was reminded of your love for me.
I realized it was Spring. There were the birds and the bees.
Looking very closely, I could see the budding of the trees.

My eyes are fading and things seem a little dim.
I know there are daffodils and the trees will need a trim.

Just today, I know that I can see the colors there.
I can, still, clean the house and wash my hair.

Just today, I will not take things for granted.
There may come a day that I cannot see what is planted.

Just today, my joints are working and I can walk around; Will not complain about feeling down.

Just today, I know that I am so blessed.
Therefore, I will hold my head high,
Will leave my burdens at Your feet, and rest.
