A moment in life when everything seems perfect.
Bliss Moments

I have just had a bliss moment,
One of those times we have now and then,
When you feel everything around you is perfect,
And it just might not happen again.

I was sitting here in the garden
Bathed in the sun’s rosy glow.
A butterfly was hovering over the petunias
And a gentle breeze through them did blow.

Everything looked so pretty and new
Though the summer was well on its way.
Larkspur and geraniums filled the air
With such perfumes on this lovely day.

The tomatoes were showing their first blush of red,
Gleaming in the bright golden rays,
Taking away all thoughts we may have
Of the coolness of autumn days.

A seagull perched on a nearby wall
Calling out to his far away mate.
Perhaps he was hoping that today
They might get together for a date.

Moments like this happen so few times
That they always stick in the mind,
To give us cheer during cold winter days
When indoors we’re so often confined.
