# I Am Grateful For #

I am grateful for each newborn day,
For morning light that clears my way.
For humble walls that stand so near,
A little home of warmth and cheer.

I am grateful for each friend I know,
For shared sweet time and laughter’s glow.
For every call that breaks the night,
For caring hands that hold me tight.

I am grateful for this faithful heart,
For healing stitched in every part.
For lessons carved in joy and pain,
For finding hope and strength again.

I am grateful for the love I see
In simple gifts surrounding me.
For breath, for peace, for all I am—
I whisper thanks to life once again.

    • Thank you so much for your kind and generous words. They touch me more deeply than you know. 🌷🤝
      I simply try to observe life with an open heart, and when someone like you receives those reflections with such warmth and understanding, it becomes a shared moment of grace.

      Gratitude truly transforms the ordinary into the sacred. If even a few lines can remind us to pause, breathe, and appreciate the quiet blessings around us, then the writing has served its purpose.

    • I’m truly glad the poem reached you at the right moment.
      Sometimes the weather outside settles into our hearts too, making everything feel a little heavier than it should.
      If these words brought even a small ray of comfort or reminded you that you’re not alone in what you’re feeling, then that means a lot.
