Thankful

Spring waits to arrive Patches of snow and gray skies Winter's memories Still thankful to be alive Where all the trouble still flies Heidi Sands 4/3/20

Good poem. Love the imagery. I thank God each and everyday for being alive. I pray that all my friends everywhere will be safe until this virus dies. I hope you have a great day.

A lovely write, Heidi. Looks like spring is having second thoughts about taking over from winter! Perhaps it is scared of the virus. Hope you are keeping well. Take care...stay safe. // paul
