And Almighty God created life.

in poem •  7 years ago 

Good day my steemit friends! It's a beautiful sunny morning and i got up early in bed to feed my neighbouring birds living inside holes on steel frame under the warehouse roof. They not usually build their nests on trees, so the birds got named "ibong bahay" a house bird, based on their way of living under roof houses. Another name is "tarat" (brown shrike) a philippines common bird.

Seeing and feeding these wonderful little birds every 6am makes me feel very relaxed and calmed, it helps me to start my day positively. As i still remembered my elementary teacher taught us this simple poem, so i've searched it on internet and it's still here. Let me share it to you guys.

All Things Bright and Beautiful...

Submitted By: NMlady

All things bright and beautiful,
All creatures great and small,
All things wise and wonderful:
The Lord God made them all.

Each little flower that opens,
Each little bird that sings,
He made their glowing colors,
He made their tiny wings.

All things bright and beautiful,
All creatures great and small,
All things wise and wonderful:
The Lord God made them all.Refrain

The rich man in his castle,
The poor man at his gate,
He made them, high or lowly,
And ordered their estate.

All things bright and beautiful,
All creatures great and small,
All things wise and wonderful:
The Lord God made them all.

The purple headed mountains,
The river running by,
The sunset and the morning
That brightens up the sky.

All things bright and beautiful,
All creatures great and small,
All things wise and wonderful:
The Lord God made them all.

The cold wind in the winter,
The pleasant summer sun,
The ripe fruits in the garden,
He made them every one.

All things bright and beautiful,
All creatures great and small,
All things wise and wonderful:
The Lord God made them all.

The tall trees in the greenwood,
The meadows where we play,
The rushes by the water,
To gather every day.

All things bright and beautiful,
All creatures great and small,
All things wise and wonderful:
The Lord God made them all.

He gave us eyes to see them,
And lips that we might tell
How great is God Almighty,
Who has made all things well.

All things bright and beautiful,
All creatures great and small,
All things wise and wonderful:
The Lord God made them all.

Beautiful! I hope teachers still teach this in schools, the idea is to care and to love every thing Gods created in this world.
