Well Endowed

Now that I have your attention
                  My poem shall begin
Knowing I am blessed today
                         Feeling it within

Realizing clouds I see
      Though blocking out the sun
Offer comfort of the shade
                  When life is overrun

Expecting that I’ll make it
         In tune with cosmos’ song
Given the most precious gift
           Well endowed and strong

Grateful to be living
                      Happiness at hand
Thankful to the universe
               For all at my command

Wonderful, Mike. An 'attitude of gratitude' is the best to cultivate, especially when life can get us down, in a depressed state. A fave. All the best to you. :) ~ Artsie

The title pulled me in Mike - you are truly blessed in so many ways! Mike Gentile claims he's well endowed, How lucky, no wonder he's proud. My poor neighbour Rodger - he's got a small todger, oops sorry did I say that out loud! Sorry I couldn't resist lol:-) hugs jan xx
