BAKIM: Bakim here. Greetings. I am a celestial artisan. I would like to leave you with a short piece.

Poem

A DAY IN SPRING such as today
I often give my heart away
I cannot hold inside my mind
A grasp on others of my kind
And those like you who also say
I'd like to take some time today
To pay attention to my world
And see the wonders now unfurled
Of warmth and beauty Springtime brings
To boys and girls and queens and kings,
To bees and rodents, cats and mice,
Birds and bees, and bugs and lice.
All the creatures great and small
Are testimony to it All.


A great and wondrous God we've got
Our world is gold inside the pot
Of life and love at rainbow's end
And so I wish for you, my friend,
A day with butterflies and sun,
A spot of shade and lots of fun,
A friend whose countenance is glad
And times like these that can be had
Because the dark and cold have gone
And Summer is soon coming on.


Enjoy your Saturday, my friend,
And in our hearts will never end.
We'll always hold within our soul,
A sense of how our lives are whole
Because of God and me and you
And family as such as likened to
A universe of life and light
From God to tiny flicker's mite.

Note
