Have I Told You

Have I Told You

Heavenly Father, have I told you

how I love the blue of the sky

as it stretches from horizon to horizon,

and how I love its shades of blue

as it turns from aqua

to ultra marine blue overhead?

Have I told you how I love the color

of the grasses in the Fall,

and how I love the way that they

dance and sway

as the breezes pass by?

Have I told you how I love the face

of a high mountain lake,

when in its stillness

it reflects the trees in their garish colors

as they say goodby to Summer

and embrace the chill of Fall?

Have I told you how I love the evening

as the sun slips away from the day,

and runs her golden fingers

across the mountain peaks

to paint them pink and gold?

Heavenly Father have I told you

how I love my grandchildren

as they laugh and play and run

and how I love my children

and wish that my life had just begun?

Heavenly Father have I told you

Thank You?
