Thankful

I’m thankful for green grass and trees, birds’ songs that carry on the breeze, and so much more that I adore. Green grass and trees I’m thankful for. With gratitude my soul is filled. The magic hour I see sun gild the hills - in that sweet interlude - my soul is filled with gratitude. In pleasing things God’s grace I see. How lovely is the world to me. While living here, my spirit sings - God’s grace I see in pleasing things! July 9, 2020 for Emile Pinet's Swap Quatrain Poetry Contest
