Mark Koplin Poet Rhyme

How Great Thou Art

Thank you, God for your majestic trees.
My biscuit at lunch kissed by your honey bees.
The birch, the pine and the mighty oak.
Thank you for my ears so I can hear every joke.

Thank you for taste and all of life’s treats.
Thank you for my eyes and the food that I eat.
Thank you for my friends and my family as well.
Thanks for my ears so I can hear them tell.

As the sun sets before me, I know that I am blessed.
Thanks for your introduction, so I no longer need to guess
Thank you for making me strong and smart.
Thank you, my God, How Great Thou Art.

Connie Marcum Wong April 11, 2020 at 10:07 PM This is beautiful Mark. I give thanks for those who don't smoke, because of my husband who smoked for over 40 years and now has COPD. I do really love your poem except for that one sensitive line. Have a wonderful Easter Mark! Blessings xxoo Connie Marcum Wong April 14, 2020 at 4:29 PM You didn't have to change it Mark. I know how much people who smoke enjoy a cigarette. My hubby tried to quit many, many times before he got ill from them. It is one of the most difficult habits to break. I endured second hand smoking on the airplanes for my entire career and it left me with asthma. You are a dear. xxoo Mark Koplin April 12, 2020 at 6:43 AM Thank you Connie. I changed that line in my poem. I'm so sorry for any offense, it was not my intention. Happy Easter.
