Today’s post is a little different than our usual posts…. It’s not about how to decorate a room, how to remove a stain from your carpet or what the different types of flooring and mattress options are, but something far more important! Please take a few moments to read the following inspirational poem by 14 year old, Riley Millner and hopefully look at what today brings for you a little differently! – Thanks, Riley for sharing!

Today Brings…

When I wake up in the morning

I can hear the birds’ song.

It’s the tune that keeps me smiling

And dancing all day long.

As soon as I step outside

I see the wonderful things,

Which God has made for all of us,

So I find joy in that he brings.

The trees then beckon me towards them,

As a small breeze makes them sway.

Their arms of gentle branches

Make me skip their way.

On entering the forest,

I see a golden shine.

It shimmers in, between the leaves,

Into a secret place o’ mine.

I feel a tap upon my shoulder,

And welcome my dear friend.

She teaches me the beauty of life

And how it never ends.

Now, at the water’s side,

The sun begins to set.

The birds start to quiet their hum,

As I sleep with no regret.
