Gratitude for Happiness

Every thought may be a blessing
Every action graceful be
Every single step be made in
Gratitude for mobility

Every vision that we see
Would inspire us to be kind
If we had but spent a single
Week of our existence blind

For every birdsong lifts the heart
Every melody enjoy
Appreciative feeling
For working hearing may employ

Every time we use two hands
Thankful we have even one:
This is how the journey to
Happiness is begun

*****

Homeless until removal of the stalker/targeter/vandal/arsonist following her allows her to approach any landlord ~ even for a private parking space ~ this poet presently lives under perpetual threat of towing with all possessions should her 23-year-old van stop running for any reason.

She is badly in need of a modest reserve with which to field any emergency which might occur.

Donors may visit http://www.UgiftABLE.com , using code #72D-31S. It does take several days for the poet to be notified of your patronage.

Thank you for supporting quality in the fine arts.Posted byAna
