Sing me a new song,
and let us dance with glee;
Come paint me a rainbow,
and remind me that I’m free!
Hug me and kiss me,
and let us dance for joy!
Declare this a new day,
in triumphant voice.
For my heart can’t contain
such a feeling of bliss,
For my heart cannot ponder
what has come from abyss.
In the spur of a moment,
in the blink of an eye,
all that’s before us is gladness,
all around is delight!
There’s a shower of blessing,
there’s a pouring of light.
There’s a flooding of flowers,
in a world that is bright.
Had I lived before,,
I have never really lived.
For today is the day,
that I have learned how to live!
I will give of my all,
I will share what is mine.
I will search all the earth
to make love yours and mine.
God has blessed me indeed,
God has blessed you and me,
For once I was blind,
but now I can see!
Find hope in your darkest hour.

Hi Jocelyn,
Love the poem – as always~!
Hello!
Great Poem. I love these lines:
“There’s a shower of blessing,
there’s a pouring of light.
There’s a flooding of flowers,
in a world that is bright”
These lines speak of the world being a bright place, which is pretty much the antithesis of what one usually hears….which is what I love about it! Good Job
Thanks, Angela! I’m happy you’re able to read my poem 😀
Thanks, Keith! An author feels really honored when somebody remembers a line she wrote, moreso to be able to repeat it. 😉 I’ve just visited your blog and added your feed to my reader so I could keep in touch.
Hi Jocelyn,
Love your new look and the poem is brilliantly wise!
Hello, Tess! Thanks, nice to see you around. I wasn’t able to keep in touch for a while, just being able to take care of my blog and keep in touch again. 😉
Great poem. We really enjoy your site and have added you to our blogroll.
@Happiness and Wisdom – Thanks a lot! My honor to be included in your blog. I love your site too, and will definitely keep in touch 😉
To reconnect with innate joy reminds one that it never leaves. One may only temporarily turn away in ignorance or for other purposes.
@Liara Covert – Yes, Liara. Sometimes I do turn away and forget, but Grace comes again and helps me to remember. 🙂
Lovely poem and it feels lovely to read it this morning as I celebrate the 4th of July and feeling great…love is the journey!
Been awhile, glad to be reconnected Thank you for your lovely comments on my last post.
@Patricia – Hello, Patricia! So glad to hear from you today. Enjoy the celebration and have a great day 😉
Joy, this poem was full of energy, also well illustrated by the picture you chose. I wonder where you were or what you were doing when you were inspired to write this. 🙂
@Davina – Hello, Davina! Surprisingly, I don’t remember what I was doing at all when I wrote this poem. I guess what was happening “within” far surpassed what happened in the external that time. I’ve had moments like that, when as though from nothing, no event or particular outside object or person causing it, I felt a certain kind of joy and peace within me. 😉 God’s shower of love, I believe.
God Bless
@Ramayan – Thank you for coming. Be blessed as well!
may i add your blog to my blogroll with your kind permission
@Nadeem – Yes, of course. But please provide a link back to this blog so people could read my other poems, too. 😉
