Thankful None

No thing is as it was to be thankful for, thankful none To be that unthankful for the life we see Seen or sought all store bought  Collecting venture every type Fashion sensible inseams  Thankful for, thankful none who are giving Paying back and paying front Never paying forward to some Ungrateful are the price tags that limit A new arrival in style that fits best Unthankful for, body image  Thankful for, thankful none  Who show off more than most have In a world where care is rare to be found Cold stares from every where unthankful for nights out Inspections are as they go when value is through sight Unthankful when the judgement is passed As a cover of a book in dim light Never reading past the surface to find thanks to give Appreciation at a low without recognition A simple thanks to goodbye, hello I love you, you are forgiven Thankful none those unthankful ones Just a waste of time Priceless is the value of freely being kind Unthankful not for those thankful none who do not see quite yet To be thankful for the preciousness of goodness that should be spread

This is such an illuminating spiritual poem, Kristina!! I am in awe of your spiritual wisdom. You are God blessed w/spiritual eyes that see beyond the grey veil. As so elegantly expressed by you ... to be thankful for the preciousness of goodness that should be spread. Seems I gotta get a little bit Whitmore of this hot soup poetry every day. Gold star poetry, sista. Love and peace forever. Romantic Warrior

This comment encourages me in many ways. I am very thankful to have a poetic admirer that takes the time to enjoy reading and writes such inspiration. I feel as though I have always been blessed to write poetry and I am grateful to have found a place where I may feel equal to my talents. May you have a blessed day and pray that my writings will continue to awe and spread. XO

Really dig this Kris. The words in this poem have an interesting cadence both in rhythm and meaning. That rhythm made me go back and read it again. Proud to be the first.

:-) Thank you Richard for commenting on having to re-read due to the rhythm. Super stoked you dug it since I wrote it off the top of my emotions then. Have not written in a few days and just posted a new write. Hope you have had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday.
