Title Unknown
I’m grateful for
good health and a wealth
of sweet smelling flowers in my garden
legs that take me anywhere I want to go,
the impossible perfection
of sunrise, moonrise, star shine,
more good books than time,
friends to tease, and squeeze
and laugh out loud with,
clean water, clean clothes
and my favorite tv shows,
another birthday
to check off the calendar,
another year of family
and friends to look forward to,
and you.
I’m grateful for you.
This is a poem by Nikki Grimes
