Poem of Thankfulness

Dear God,

Thank you for...

small hands clasped against mine

snuggles

clean sheets

hot coffee that greets me in the morning

strong handshakes and long hugs

tickles and whooshes onto the bed

kisses

granola with bits of chocolate and berries

the slow cooker that welcomes me after a long day

neighbors jumping on the trampoline

still, quiet moments of the morning

inside jokes

my great-grandmother's ironing board

machines that wash clothes and dishes

fresh citrus fruit

friends that never miss a beat even after a long time away

alarm clocks

dogs that curl against me and snore

laughter

friends that make me think

friends that challenge me to be a better person

moments of calm

Love.
