There are so many wonderful things that life has to offer. Let these poems remind you of the many blessings you have.
People have different thoughts on the wonderful things that life has to offer. For example, Suzy Kassem says in her book, Rise Up and Salute the Sun, "The key to a wonderful life is to never stop wandering into wonder."
And, Debasish Mridha says, "How wonderful life can be if your thoughts and actions created wonderful things for others!" And, Billy Graham in his book, the Secret of Happiness, writes: "Happy is that person who has learned the secret of being
content with whatever life brings him, and has learned to rejoice in the simple and beautiful things around him."

Great, wide, beautiful, wonderful world.
With the wonderful water round you curled.
And the wonderful grass upon your breast -
Great world, you are beautifully drest.
The wonderful air is over me,
And the wonderful wind is shaking the tree;
It walks on the water and whirls the mills.
And talks to itself on the tops of the hills.
You friendly Earth, how far do you go
With the wheat-fields that nod, and the rivers that flow.
With cities and gardens, and cliffs and isles.
And people upon you for thousands of miles?
Ah, you are so great, and I am so small,
I tremble to think of you, world, at all;
And yet, when I said my prayers to-day,
A whisper inside me seemed to say,
"You are more than the earth, though you are such a dot;
You can love and think, and the world cannot."
If you ever feel that you don't have wonderful things in your life, then just turn on the news. It is filled with stories of people suffering hardships that we should count our blessings each and every day for the
lives that we have. Just imagine if you were living in a war-torn country, or if you were in a hospital fighting for your breath. There are many amazing things in our lives that we just have to stop and
recognize and be thankful for. We hope these poems remind you of that!
