Best Thankfulness Poems

Your smile has always forced the same upon my face
Your laugh has always caused the same to project from my mouth
 
Your hugs have always made me feel your love
Your kisses have always made me warm
Your hands against mine have always made my heart seem...

Thankfulness: the opposite of complaining
This isn’t going to come easily, it will take a little training
It’s the concept of being content with all that we own
And being grateful for all the love that God has shown
We so often think that our lives are so rough
Because...

1. My sins may be an alarmist
hitting me hard with heavy fist
Your glory, I want to be near
my soul to you, I feel no pier
a flowerless life like lichen
you stop my spirit from itching
thank you Jesus for my account
full of blessing’s I cannot count.

Chorus
For all...

chew your food slowly
your daily bread
grateful for each bite

thankful for those
who sit at your table

wining
masticating
jittering

elbows leaning
mouths wide open
babies crying

but imagine no one
no food at all
not a crumb

mouse nervously chews his tale
dreaming of cheese

chew your food slowly
your daily bread
grateful for each bite

thankful for those
who sit at...

Just as there are the stars that twinkle in the sky
so many thousand cars from work are rushing by.
Too many things to do, a way of life engraved,
that hours to peer are few and work makes us a slave.

Do ever you relax to think of...

God has blessed me
In this last year
Very very much;
In every day
Nothing was lacking
God made a way

Thanks, Lord, for grace
Happiness and joy
All from the depths of Your love;
Never forsaking me
Keeping and guiding me
Seeking me out from above

Born into this world full of hope
but soon we feel it ebb  away
so many struggles are in our face
there's no lack of them every day

Our reaction is to turn right around
immediately change gear reverse back
run from all our life's troubles
but honestly forward's the right...

The first red of dawn reveals lacy waves.
The last purple shuts down busy with lights.
Many days alike yet may feature kites
and I wonder how many our mind saves.

Somewhere relatives I kissed,  hugged wander
make the same meals, crochet like my grandma
so busily paint, , nail...

Thankfulness

I treasure those heartfelt moments spent at the dining table,
With Dad and Mom and us siblings with our own offspring to rear,
Engaged in an eating and conversational atmosphere,
In the traditional family gathering festivals.
From the tinkle of the glass, echoed by a spoon on the rim
(To...

Looking back over all of one’s life
one was to stop and ponder so much
so many roads I could have went
but through it you see God’s tender touch

The providence of God is so vast
so many evidences of His divine mark
this fills your heart with real thankfulness
so...

A blue lobster was saved at Red Lobster today
From the usual fate of lobster ways.
The zookeepers came and took her to the zoo
Where everyone said, “Look she’s blue”.

The other lobsters complained,
"We’re all red-we’re all the same."
And one by one, they ended up on plate
As the...

Lying there, serenely, after a warm jasmined bath,
The thought hit me, what if I never again do awake?
Just wide eyed in heaven’s home to joyfully partake!

I awoke to live in eternal love with good and not wrath.
Now existingin a realm with God, not one of...

I will turn to see the sky
touch the grass and wonder why
walk the mountain trail again
splash the cold against my face
feel the burly bark of brethren pine
upon a wintry shine of one more snow
before I go

wade waist deep in summer hay
and play all day
roll down...
