How Fortunate We Are
Its easy to forget, amidst the frenzy of the season,
That all this “sound and fury,” it happens for a reason:
That words, we fear, fall short somehow expressing what we’re feeling
And gifts will say, another way, how fortunate we are.
I know that I forget, sometimes, to thank you for your kindness
But knowing you, as I do, broadens my horizons.
I’ve become a better man, a better human being.
I won’t forget to show or say how fortunate we are.
Thank you for your friendship, thank you for your time.
Thank you for accepting me with all these quirks of mine,
But don’t forget that I am here when life, it sends you reeling.
I’ll find a way to help you see how fortunate we are,
