PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I am grateful for understanding

No matter where I walk in life

wherever the path bay bend…

the walk is always a little sweeter

when walking with friend.

May we be blessed to have the kind of friends

who can be entrusted with our sadness…

who will not only share our joy….

but will overlook our madness

I am grateful that throughout may life…

around it’s curves and corners and bends…

I have had friends who’ve become my family

and family…who’ve become my friends.

I am grateful from today…and all the years that passed

for all the friends in life I‘ve been fortunate to have amassed

because as Native Nation wisdom tells us

Yes, as those who were here before us knew

One foe is too many

Life is one long miraculous journey

If we’re lucky that’s the wait it is meant to me…

and today I’m grageteul for the family and friends

who are making this journey with me.

Today I’m grateful to have the kind of friends…

with whom I’m lucky enough to me matched…

Who, whenever we talk to each other

our words seem to have smiles attached.

May we be blessed to be surrounded by family and friends…

who are like stars in the morning sky…

who, even though we may not see them, 

it’s nice to know they are nearby.

If you are blessed throughout your life

to know friends who make you smile…

then may you be equally blessed

to…never let them go.

Today I’m thankful for our friends

who share in all our happiness

who help absorb our strife

who, through their friendship, are woven into

the tapestry of our life.

Who have found a way to strengthen our heart

and complement our soul

Who, with every part of them they give to us,

help to make us whole.
