A Haiku - Gratitude
What deserves my gratitude?
And today I'm grateful for....
Grateful for my life.
Short or long no matter what.
Filled with love and such.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~~ ~ ~ ~ ~
If it is longer.
So much the better and fine.
I'll be grateful, sure.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~~ ~ ~ ~ ~
For memories past,
Each season, test, trial o'ercome,
A new day dawned clear.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Not all alone here.
Then or now, companions dear,
Precious, kind to boot.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Pets, vistas, storms, sun,
Each memory now sublime,
Filled in the seasons.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~~ ~ ~ ~ ~
No doubt, my reasons
Expressed in gratitude now.
God blest, each day ours..
