The earth has music for those who listen ~ William Shakespeare Being grateful for what I have Is easier than listening To the worry that tells me I don’t have it all – enough – or plenty I’m grateful – so much – so thankful For the little things That embrace my spirit With inspiration, kindness - feeling I’m grateful for my faith It sends me through the thoughts That flicker like sunlight Across my soul, coloring me warm I’m grateful for my joy It winks in my eyes, laughing Sighing across my spirit On the wings of dancing familiarity I’m grateful for my hope It listens to my heart Breathes happiness so divine I strive to live humbly, simply I’m grateful for my love It lights my thoughts with pearls Of acceptance, compassion, strength The knowing that God is with me I’m grateful for the promise Of a life abiding in grace Whispering belief into my path As I pray a prayer of praise I’m grateful that God Is alive and waiting To send down His blessing On my plans, ambitions and dreams I’m grateful that I live With the assurance that I can Give back from my heart A part of the love that I have I’m grateful – for everything!
