GIVING THANKS - DVERSE POETS PUB

TREASURES.

I open the cupboard

To discover the treasure chest

Long forgotten

Containing rows & rows of

Photo album

From now and then.

I open one, and am magically

Transported in time to

Another place, another time, another age.

There I am –

The young bride smiling at the future

Here I am –

The first time mom with my new born

There I am –

The sister having fun

Here I am –

The daughter looking up to my dad

There I am –

The friend, laughing mad

Here I am –

The grand-daughter hugging my granny

And again –

The cousin acting cool and goofy.

Oh! I can feel the chill

Of the mist filled mountain

The deafening sounds of

The waterfall

Feel the cold sprays from

The water

Feel the warmth of

The rising sun

Enjoy the serenity of

The starless night…

As I close the last one,

My heart wells up

And brims my eyes

I bow my head…as

Gratitude escapes my lips.
