Thanksgiving

Grateful that at least
one other
loves as deeply as I -- 
a pleasure to meet You;

Grateful that at least
one other feels the 
deeper, fond nature of 
a romantic heart
beating loyally, in dear
unison -- a pleasure to
greet You;

Grateful am I for a
Gaia, that responds cooperatively
to Our shared aspirations and nurturing
desires,

filling our eyes with
ripe warmth of color,
teeming seas, a cradle
of pearl-essence shores~
green mountains
and valley's plush,
fertile for cyclical growing -- 
we plant and harvest
together;

Thank you for being You

and loving me as a Wife
Husband, Father and Mother
Sister and Loyal Brother

-- my cats:)) -- 

Thank You for All,

bankrupt, if not for Your 

continued Grace

and Blessings -- 

Thank You~ God.

How important it is to begin our day by thanking God. We have lost Him in our worldly pursuits. All is not lost if we repent.

Thank you, Victor; repent...and don't repeat the behavior -- to the best of one's ability. We are human.

What a heartwarming and deep post for thanksgiving.. I can really feel the warm zephyr of gratitude swirling in these words, when a soul truly appreciates each breath and is able to appreciate the beauty that has been woven in every second of life, if we observe carefully. Amazing descriptions and emotions throughout.. "filling our eyes with ripe warmth of color, teeming seas, a cradle of pearl-essence shores" Loved reading your words after a long time.. Sending best wishes & light, always :)
