These Three Things I Am Thankful For

I have found beauty in the form of astounding gratitude. My daughter Ella Rose knows a mother’s love and adoration. For she is the reason for my absolute God-given creation, And with her I drown in the marvel of gladdened pulchritude. Those memories of my sister ‘fore she died I shall appreciate. For she brought so much kindness to the world with ease. When I pray for all my sadness and regretful shame to cease, I know being grateful for her laughter will always alleviate. My trustworthy husband is loyal, and to me so venerated. He is one in a trillion on earth and I shall always be satisfied with his love and passion; I am truly completely gratified. I fold my hands in prayer, thanking God for being dedicated. November 7, 2018
