The gift of Life that quickens you…
The gift of Knowledge teaches you…
The gift of Wisdom guiding you…
The gift of Light inspires you…
The gift of Faith that strengthens you…
The gift of Patience calming you…
The gift of Love embraces you…

Slow the pace…
Stop the race…
Close the case…
Stay in place…

Take away a single moment from the world,
And just be still.

A little time steal for yourself,
Relax your weary will,

And let your mind remember,
What the busy world has hidden,

By distraction kept from seeing,
That these gifts to you are given…

The gift of Life that quickens you…
The gift of Knowledge teaches you…
The gift of Wisdom guiding you…
The gift of Light inspires you…
The gift of Faith that strengthens you…
The gift of Patience calming you…
The gift of Love embraces you…

Beautiful poem, it shows what we are missing. With our busy life styles and a life that doesn’t appreciate the gifts that we are given.

All we need to do is stop and watch the beauty.

I absolutely agree. That's the feeling I was shooting for. Thanks for your comments!

You've outdone yourself.

You've got a new fan!

This is excellent work.

Very informative.

You're on the right track.
