I Am Grateful

I am grateful for the job I have
The people in my life
The roof over my head


I am glad for the food in my kitchen
The coat in my closet
Even my DVD collection

I am lucky to be healthy
Not stuck in a bed
Happy to have a car
Even if it’s a hooptie

But what I am the most grateful for 
Is the smile waiting past my front door
My fiance is my life
I love you Rudy, you’re my best friend
