Everyday
Is Christmas
For Me
I Wake Up Each Morning
With Gifts All Around
But The Gift That Is Best,
Is The Smile In Your Eyes
On The Pillow Next To Me
Each Day Is A New Day
That’s Given To Me
With Surprises Ahead
And Now’s Yet To Be
The Seasons Come
And The Seasons Go
With Each Day For Me
Tied Up In A Bow
Each Day Is Christmas
A New Gift For Me
With Thanksgiving Blessings
When I Wake Up To See
Your Smiling Eyes
In Love With Me

lick their wounds
alone

May our unknowing lead to breakthroughs and growth,
And our impediments inspire songs of gratitude,
Whether sung aloud or only within our hearts.

In life
I discovered
that the more you give thanks ,
the more you receive.
the more you recite the good moments,
the more they come running towards you.
the more you wonder in awe at this vast Earth,
the more you are born again like new.

Poetry challenge: Easter poem.
Christ willingly took upon himself your sins and mine that day.
In order that you and I would never pay what we deserved to pay.
In agony and pain He cried out ,”Father, forgive them, they know not what they do! ”
Even in death as His skin was scourged, His thoughts were of me and you.

In a time where many have gone crazy
TV, newspapers, internet full of lunacy
It’s getting hard to find anything positive
We see so many feel no reason to live.

A Thankful Heart is Open to Blessings
because it is closed to worry, doubt, and wailing.
A Thankful Heart is Filled with Love
because it empties itself of loathing, greed, and envy.

Aglow in gratitude
Thankful for…

What blessings
And miracles

Thank you
To all who
Were there with love
When no one else was
-–Or would have been
Had you known me then.

More than just platitudes
Sometimes kindness is just that…kindness
And gratitude is gratitude
There are no sinister motives
There is no foul plot afoot

You were the first man
Who loved me
Who held me
The first man who cared if I was okay
The first man who came running when I needed you
My first Santa Claus
My first guidance counselor
My first couch date
The first man to lay down the law
The first man first rate.

For Poetry Challenge 2
He carries a whiff of diesel
Denim smeared, greasy to the touch
Beads of sweat cool on his sun baked face
Good shirts come home from the fields
With soft frayed holes and a scent of green
A sure thing to send Ma’s ire up
Added to the broken saucer and cup
The raggedy man,
A listener, a speaker,
Father mine,

When someone does
Something so kind
It takes your breath
And words away

I don’t know what tomorrow will bring
Or even how today will end
But I do know that of all of my blessings
The greatest are my family and friends.
