COUNTING BLESSINGS! <br /> <br />During my childhood days, I had once let <br />a gas balloon escape, - <br />Into the vast expanse of the vast blue space! <br />It had turned into a tiny speck and melted <br />into infinite space! <br />Those were the days filled with wonder, - <br />And the balloon toed a child’s waking dreams, <br /> - no wonder! <br />Now after many long years, I neither marvel <br />at the infinite, <br />Nor do I lament the finiteness of things! <br />I thank the Lord for all that I have for the <br />time being! <br />For the happiness and joy which life brings! <br />Not for how long I will have them! <br /> -Raj Nandy <br /> 03 Jul 09 <br /> New Delhi<br /><br />RAJ NANDY<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/counting-blessings-2/
