I Am Thankful For

Quote By Poet "Thank You, just two little words that need to be used to God and to others." 

 
I Am Thankful For God above,
for all His blessings and love. 
I want to say Thank You,   
because I am through and through. 

 
From the start of each new day,
until the sunset with clouds of gray.
From work to play,
I want to say I am thankful as I pray.


There can be times of pain,
but they will not become a drain.
At times it must rain,
so the pretty flowers will bud even in Spain.

Thanking the Creator for all the many gifts which we receive on a daily basis is an appropriate thing to do, Paula. To all that I would like to add a thank you for the gift of friendship. ~ Regards // paul
