Feeling Blessed Always Poem by Anil Kumar Panda

While watching a lily blooming
in my yard I feel happy and blessed
I feel like a kid in this wonderful world

I feel the cool wind softly caressing my face
and try to catch it in the cup of my palms

It touches and flies away and I watch it
settling in the leaves in the trees and make
them flutter creating a music

I watch the tiny birds hopping around me
picking up seeds and fruits and sometimes
look at me in a doubtful mood tilting their
heads to a side

Their bleary eyes shining in
the sun ray falling in strands through the
branches

I feel like catching them and talk for
hours as they perch and relax on my lap

I feel blessed in all the seasons
They give me different tastes of life
