Grateful For Strength

The snow grips tree branches And is frozen on the ground There’s thick ice on the roof For now, there’s not a sound It is early winter morning The sun will visit for a while Pale yellow skies above mountains shine Peeking through gray clouds with a smile I say my prayers quite often lately With so much going on every day I’m grateful for the inner strength Given to me along the way Heidi sands 2/26/23

Seize that inner strength, and let it warm the fires of your soul, my dear friend. ~ Courage! :) gw

Thank you my friend :) Except we had snow fall and it is causing instant congestion and today it smells.

Amen! Something we should all be thankful for, Heidi. Winter here, has come and gone. We're looking at another day in the 70's. I did enjoy your poem this morning:)
