I am thankful that I escaped

That I left and had the courage that it would take

I am thankful that my heart started to smile

Despite all at that time in my life was senile

I am thankful that I did not fall apart

While trying to separate my heart.

I am thankful that life can be grand

Despite all the hurt that can follow a man.

I am so thankful my love never dried up

That I could forgive and such.

I am most thankful that my life started again

Regardless of all that I went through back then.

I am thankful like a deer that escapes the hunter’s bow

Like a cold frost that can destroy things and then knows when to let go.

I am much thankful for new beginnings

And  for being able to hear the songs that birds are singing.

From start to finish, onward I must go

Always striving to see thanksgiving in all I live to know.

Think / Poem by MwsR

I stare out through my kitchen window

My mind is trying to register what my eyes already know

I can’t look as far as I once use to, my eyes have  a astigmatism now

I use to see for yards and yards away,

But not today.

But not anymore.

Yet, I am thankful that I have my eye sight still

There are others who do not.

 

As I drink my coffee this morning

My memory takes me down a path, I long ago was on.

Where things were all wrong

Where I did not matter to those closest to me

I sigh for a moment right before the thoughts escape me

I say to myself”I am not that person anymore”,

I have those that want me and love me, now.

Today, I am thankful for those who tolerate me

Those that have stayed around.

 

As I sit her and type away on my laptop,

While keeping an ear at to listen for my grandkids’ movements

I realize how much time has flown right by without me noticing.

The numerous times that I was not fully paying attention to

The special times that I had yet to see then,

I am realizing are now gone.

I am so much older than I ever was in my thoughts

I really hadn’t thought that far ahead.

Yet, I am thankful for the years I have been alive,

For seeing the sun and the moon rise

Having been blessed is what I have been

Now that’s the best message to convey, here at the END.
