Grateful For:
sunrises, sunsets,
soft breezes, wind chimes,
dogs and the sound of power saws,
neighbors building and repairing things,
favorite foods, popcorn, chocolate,
movies that move me,
a good nights sleep, a brand new day,
beauty, art and music,
the written word and truths spoken,
honest joy and instructive pain,
conversations and arguments,
difficulties and victories,
loss, and grief
and unexpected pleasure,
the generosity of people,
their inherent kindness,
children-yours and mine,
old people whose eyes still twinkle,
our absurd and often deranged behavior
and the ability to see this and laugh our asses off,
fear, and then
the safety found in faith
and trusting in a loving universe,
accidents
and the possibility that there are none,
the people I hold in my heart
who hold me in theirs,
that listen and accept me as i am,
and trust me to do the same for them,
this breath,
& if I’m still lucky,
the next one too..
