A Lesson In Gratitude Poem by Richard Wlodarski

A Lesson In Gratitude

Rating: 5.0


O Lord Creator
Today I give thanks
For so much in life:
Two eyes witnessing
Birth of Creation
Two ears hearing
Nature's symphony
A mouth tasting
Life's abundance
A nose smelling
All that is good
Two feet walking
In others' shoes
Two hands welcoming
God's friendly neighbours

And One Heart
Shared with God

A transcendental work, Richard. What is or may be divisive, a 2, ultimately is united in one. Brilliant work, Richard.

'Transcendental and brilliant' coming from such an esteemed poet is such a great honour. And very humbling. Sincerest thanks, M.J. Great to have you back!

'God works in mysterious ways'. I had posted a heart-felt reply, but PH didn't. So, I wrote you a poem titled A Million Candles.
