Charles Fitzgerald Poet Rhyme

I'M So Thankful

I'm so thankful for the peace in my life,
 It would be worse if all I had was strife.
 I'm so thankful for the eyes that have been given me,
 It would be worse if I didn't have eyes to see.

 I'm so thankful for the teeth that I've got,
 It would be worse if I had them not.
 I'm so thankful for my fingers, and my toes,
 It would be worse if I didn't have those.

 I'm so thankful for a heart that does beat,
 It would be worse if I had no hands or feet.
 I'm so thankful for when things go good,
 It would be worse if it didn't go like it should.
