A poem a day for 2013 - day 219 - Gratitude

I am thankful for friends
For V Kali
For easy conversation
With a woman sister mother friend who loves me
Who keeps my secrets safe
Who hears my stories
Who gives me hers

I am thankful for this day
For my body in motion
For busses that come on time

For my son
For the sun
The grass in the park
The trees
The walking path
I am thankful

For this day
This moment
For ideas
For words
For work
For work with words

I am thankful for love
Water
Food
Peace
Ease
Life
