Attitude of Gratitude

January 11th, 2010



Here’s a little poem I wrote about a year ago. I’d forgotten all about it until I happened upon it this morning. It’s sort of silly because it rhymes, but I don’t care :) I was having the most fantastic morning when I wrote it and rereading it made those wonderful feelings come rushing back! I love how our human memory works.

Now that I’ve got the remembered feeling down, I should apply some imagination and make something nice out of it! Boy O boy do I just LOVE conscious creation :)

Attitude of Gratitude
By El Baugher

Thank you for the sunshine bright
And night time dark and deep.

Thank you for the ones I love
And all the one’s I meet.

Thank you for the leaves in fall
And flowers in the spring.

Thank you for the JOY inside
my heart that makes me sing!

Thank you for each trial I’ve faced
And all my lessons learned.

Thank you for the chance to love
And have that love returned.

Thank you for the thankfulness
That drives my life to bliss.

I can’t imagine any life more wonderful than this.



*You enjoyed my post and would like to buy me coffee?!
WOW! I really appreciate that!
