Thank You! - A Poem



"Tomorrow will take care of itself...there is a positive side to everything...even though sometimes it's hard to see it..."

THANK YOU!


The most inspired, lyrical writing, that I seem to do best
Tends to be the darker...moodier...and depressed

I sit here and write tonight, on a more positive concept
There's a thankfulness within, that I just cannot repress

Thank you dear God, for life's cup, mixed bittersweetly
Thank you for my little child, whom I adore completely

Thank you for each new day, for it means I am still here
Savoring life's sundry pleasures, with all that I hold dear

No problem is too great, or that cannot be resolved
Not while there is breath in me, and power to move on

Thank you for my backaches, for it means that I can walk
Thank you for the laundry, for it means that I have clothes

For my job I'm thankful too...in spite of all the stress
For it means a steady income, and a roof over our heads

For the softly scented wind...in a meadow filled with blooms
The friendly stranger smiling, that makes me feel so good

The sweet love song the birds sing, to any ear that hearkens
And precious hugs of children, dispelling inner darkness

For all the friends I've had...even those that have betrayed me
I'm thankful because they have taught me, that I am not weak

Finally I'm thankful for, new friends who now are part of
My life...and in this moment...I don't worry for tomorrow!
