Thankful

You hit me
You hurt me
You caused me pain
But I am thankful

You made me strong
You taught me to stand up
Every time you cause me pain
For that I am thankful

You gave me a seed
I helped it grow
You walked away
For that I am thankful

You introduced me to your friends
They became mine too
They helped me out when you didn't
For that I am thankful

They are now my family
You walked away
We are now happy
For that I am thankful

by Jishi Santos

I am thankful every day just to be alive
thankful for the sun that rises in the east.
I'm trying to be a better man, for that

The heart of thanks makes life a feast,

for gratitude expands,

Let daily thankfulness increase,

and Hope will firmly stand.

Thankful to You, God

Pirouette of black eyed sun flowers on their stems

Dancing my garden through

In poky yellow bonnets

This Blank Sheet Of Mine

This little blank sheet in front of me,

is my only release.

Hard to imagine loosing it,

I don't

I am grateful for the love that you give me.

Like a valley with the freshest spring water.

I thrive of your love.
