Ten Things of Thankful – April 22 2023
It’s TTOT time and here we go!
Reasons to be grateful
doors that are welcome to be knocked on
health protected by tests and precautions
people who hold hands instead of arms
time devoted to getting to know true persons
parents who, despite their own struggles, taught us better
friends who become family and family who become friends
a community where I can find unjudgmental support
passion about the worth of persons
those who take stands, leaving their positive mark
the ability to write about what I want

Ten Things of Thankful-April 7 2023
April Showers bring Thankfuls for Flowers…Hi y’all. It’s National Poetry Month, so I just had to start with a rhyme.
Grateful for the rain outside
inside would be messy
grateful for the car that glides
so we can get necessities
grateful there is work to do
ready for when bills are due
grateful for socks and shoes
clothers on our backs, too
grateful for projects complete
payment to come will be so neat
grateful for the peace I find
when I find a settled mind
These are all things for which I am grateful
I did not count them one to ten
If these were all things there’d be a crate full
Altogether it’s for the win!

Bone
Love this 😀 Had to share.
Our connection
is thicker than blood
stronger than muscle
Our bond is like bone
flexible and resilient
made of the earth
A honeycomb of winks
and slow caresses
and if it breaks
it hurts worse
than any gut-punch
or cigarette burn
and takes months
to heal
(For today’s prompt, write a connection poem.)
