Thank You for Being a Friend--the Golden Girls Theme Song
To list all of Betty White’s accomplishments,
besides The Golden Girls, I’d have to write a book.
I’m thrilled that now, for just seventy-three cents,
I can place her image on an envelope. Take a look! (Notes)
Every blond hair is perfectly in place.
As always, she wears a genuine smile.
A hint of mischief graces her...

Thank You India
Thank you for the culture so rich and colourful
The silk woven fabric, tribal clothes, so wonderful
Thank you for the rice, chapati's, and street food spicy hot
It touched me the poverty though
Which showed me to appreciate how much I have got
Thank you for the cows that wander in and out of traffic
The rickshaws, chaa...

Lord Make Things RightI thank You for the day
That You let me in Your life
My heart filled with excitement
I was thrilled with sheer delight
But somehow it has faded
And I can't feel the warm sunlight
My thoughts of You are jaded
Come close, My Lord, make things right

Nothing Like A Thank youFor the favor you did but never let me forget,
for the “no pressure” laced with regret.
for every “no big deal” that came with fine print,
I paid with a thank you,
and smiled like a flint.
For all the gifts that came with a clause,
For the cheers while citing my flaws,
For every applause wrapped in dissent,
I returned with...

My Translator“Mom, they called my name I won.”
“Mijo, estoy tan orgullosa de ti, qué bendición.”
Her voice lifts when I tell her.
Like music in a language they don’t teach in school.
At the store, at school, at the doctor’s front desk
I become her mouth. I become her ears.
They...

Thank you#Thank_you
My hat is off, gratitude to the table.
Lemme put on my dancing shoes,
this is a call for celebration.
Pop the ink out,
Painting brush, firm on my right hand,
Toss closer the rainbow colours
Wanna pour my heart out,
on this poetic board.
Drip of smile,
drizzle of love and
some dash of happiness.
See the driping joy...

Jaymee's Version: thanK you, aIMee, For Taking it Down, I Guess
it's as good an apology
as I'll ever get. Red-handed
is a hard spot to be,
but you deleted it quick.
Although it had been there
since March of '24,
which just means your speed
was relative to matters of impending
consequence, not conscience.
Rest assured as inertia, I think you got it
before anyone could clock the line...

Until TomorrowBefore I say goodnight
I wanna say thank you
Thank you for unsealing your heart
Leaving enough room for a few scriptures
On my life
A blanket of affirmations
Burnt holes through the fabric
Concealing sins only you can bear
Sweating out lies from satan
You hear the laughter.
You hear the cries
From day one through day 365
Cleaning up the puke of broken promises
Tears of...

In Stars AboveSo far away but my heart you shine through.
Stronger, swifter, and wiser, I am better just because of you.
As the past reigned with the man kings your glow reign in me too.
I'm passionate to be directed by my compass, water, and shoes.
Your nose loud as tunes i can only offer a fife.
From a distance...
