I Give Thanks

I give thanks for gifts from creative ways And deep blue skies on sunny days I give thanks for the kind, caring gestures And wide open freedom in golden pastures I give thanks for guidance, strength and survival Born in the miracles of granted revival I give thanks for simple things in each catalyst That launches my soul, as I emerge from the mist And from diifficult challenges and painful.days From things that leave smudges on life, as it frays I give thanks for the contrast of good and bad The colorful ground of mercy, I let myself clad There are so many thanks, a million stars to see Shining in the dark, pouring wise stardust on me Heidi Sands 11/23/23 Thanksgiving COPYRIGHT
