Grateful Heart

Poem

Photo from author's collection

How can my heart not sing its gratitude,
and not show kindness where I go
our lives are governed by our attitude

Being positive does not spare us difficulties
but it sure helps us to endure them
surrounded by color in flowers, birds, and trees

So a thankful heart is mine for all reminders
of the beauty in the world, in most people,
the trials I face are eased by my thank yous
