Be Thankful Each Day

Be Thankful Each Day
Written: by Miracle Man

Lord, I oft take for granted,
many little things.
Because some of these objects,
don’t produce pings.

They often tend to slip,
through my life unseen.
While you’ve blessed me with plenty,
Other parts of the world glean.

Little things like clean water,
 which without thought we waste.
While others live in squalor,
without clean water to taste.

Void of shoes, and walking,
where ever they might go.
The good life goes untasted, 
this is all they’ll ever know.

So today while I have choice,
of Thanksgiving treat.
Some parts of the world ponder,
if they will just eat.

So this day from our bounty,
we will willingly share.
Not with them, but with someone,
because we’re thankful and care.
