Gratitude

  • Post category:poetry

I am thankful that I can stand, jump, and walk
And grateful that I can hear, see, and talk

I am thankful for the mountains, beaches, and trees. 
And I am grateful for the rivers and the seas
And even for the air I breathe
I’m grateful for all of these

I am thankful for the job I have 
and the money I receive 
And I am grateful for being free
I’m grateful for all of these
The blessings I receive

I am thankful for my friends,
My siblings and my family
I am thankful for my home, 
my computer and my phone

I’m grateful for all of these
I’m counting the blessings I receive
Not everybody has all of this
Everyday I live,
should be a day of bliss

I am thankful for my country
And all the people who protect me

I am grateful for today 
as much as I am yesterday

I’m grateful for all of these
Blessings I receive
Not everybody has all of this
Everyday I live, 
should be a day of bliss
