Give Thanks

Brown eyed boys with big smiles.
Brown eyed man with strong arms.
A warm shelter that's our home.
Mundane life unravels to my delight.
Waking up and feeling sweet gratitude.
Health is wealth we cannot squander.
Chasing dreams,we follow our hearts.
Memories of a dad that loved,
a mother who created a home,
a legacy of love and tradition.
Freedom of speech and other freedoms.
Wisdom,kindness,thoughtfulness,inspiration and joy.

  9. To delight in the mundane: Yes!

    And to live up to the legacies we've inherited, while leaving our own: I would have gratitude for that, too.
