The tender touch of breeze
The soft sound of brook
Beautiful blossoms smiling
At the light and warmth of sun.
Happiness filtering through the trees
Moonlight streaming through my windows
Hope sprouting around me, every spring
The dusky sky, the merging hues of rainbow,
The warmth of my home
The mirth, the kindness, and
A steady drizzle of love
Seeping slowly into my soul.
The blessings of being alive,
The constant company of friends
Revered reminders of gratitude
Celestial moments of appreciation.
Assimilating the ache of setbacks
Embracing the hurricanes of life
Gratitude grants the serenity
To bounce back, to tap the infinite
To stumble upon and cherish
Those moments of endless joy
Those moments of togetherness
Sparkling on the sand of time.
