Gratitude Couplets
Thank you dear God for simple zest;
Thank you dear Lord for choice and quest.
Thank you for play, for easy smiles;
For light of day, for cheery style.
Thank you for jest, for wit that swirls;
For lovely fest, for dance and twirl.
Thank you for words, for lines and rhymes;
For art that's heard, for verse and chimes.
Thank you for voice, for heart that feels;
For faith and poise, for touch that heals.
Thank you for fate, for certain charm;
For healthy plate, for peaceful psalm.
Thank you for friends, for kin and kind;
For happy trends, for peace of mind.
Thank you for joy, for thoughts that spring;
For sense to toy, for sensuous flings.
Thank you dear God for earthly ways;
Thank you dear Lord for ample stay.
