Above All I Give Thanks

Grateful am I for the gold coined sun that warms my heart and thankful too for all the stars that shine so bright; I am indebted to my maker for these blessed hands that can, write poems of great valor, with a mind that works just fine. I am beholden for the eyes that see and the voice that speaks appreciative, for the breath that lives in me . I am glad I have bread to eat and water to drink but most and foremost I am thankful for the precious souls, that make up my family.

Such a wonderful "Thankful Prayer" -- those who have known great sorrow and hunger know this well. I had an elderly German man and his wife over for cake and coffee. When the cake was finished, they wet the tips of their fingers and picked up every crumb, not to waste a bit. They knew hunger during the war. Blessings.

How precious is that, to share in it, understand the action and what goes behind it. Yes the memory stays with you after you have known hunger, thank you for appreciating the poem
