An Expression Of Gratitude To God (Free Verse Sonnet) Poem by Gert Strydom

(after S. J. Pretorius)

Thank you that You do give words to me to share with others
and I am also grateful for life and every small and big blessing
where I and every other person have got to play an important role for You
and You do bring small and big miracles and every lovely thing around me,
I thank you for each word in which I can sing and also for the correct sentences,
where Your way is far beyond the horizons and Your stars do glitter above me
and I am but insignificant (just a human being)and like this each one comes into life
but You do give each person in life love and choices and chance upon chance,
I am but one individual in nature's streched out great choir
that sings to You about Your love and grace praise and thanks and honour
where You do exist far beyond eons and through ages hear this song
and thank you that You do give me the ability to humbly sing to your praise
in that sometimes incomprehensible and overwhelming glorious great song
that everything that is created in one or other way does bring to You.
