GIFTS




Gratitude travels
from eyes to heart,
at the beauty I am seeing.
Memory rolls out
the long line of gifts
I have been given.
From way back then
to the wonder of now:
blessings.....
my spirit rising
in a prayer of thankfulness
to the All That Is.


Gratitude is my most constant feeling, these days and all my days. For Marian's prompt at Real Toads: Sensation.

    My favorite part is the personification of "memory rolls out the long line of gifts."

    That one strikes a chord Sherry, for the unique feel of thankfulness and gratitude which comes rushing over, this very moment, much like those rolling waves ..

    Gratitude, we should always take time to count our blessings. Even in darkness light searches for us to welcome it and be thankful.
