I am Thankful for Poetry Contest

Sponsor- Tania Kitchin

---

 

I am thankful for the beautiful family I proudly own
My loving parents under whose care, I have grown
My bosom friends who share my joy and pain,
Who selflessly abide with me with no thoughts of gain. 

I am thankful for the boon of motherhood at a late age
For ever protecting me from nature’s fury and rage. 
Thankful for the wonders, the changing seasons bring
The fruits of summer and the lovely blossoms of spring.

I am thankful for the treasured moments which give me delight.
All the simple and elementary things that make my life bright.
Above all, thankful for all the blessings, God bestows on me,
Fueling my heart with peace and hope, making all negativity flee.
