PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Today I’m grateful for the wisdom that comes with age…

with understanding each day as I grow a little older…

perfection…

like love…

like beauty…

is in the eye of the beholder.

Today I’m grateful for understanding 

how the ripples of love and kindness with their constant motion

works very similarly to the waves upon the ocean…

If I send love and kindness out with the tide…

heading toward the horizon…out across the sea….

when the tide returns there’s a gook chance

love and kindness will find their way back to me.

Today I’m grateful for understanding love and hate

and all the ties that bind them…

that whether we’re looking for reasons to love 

or reasons to hate…

how easy it is to find them. 

How, when love or hate are left free and unrestrained,

nothing can impede them…

and how the only way for either to grow

depends on how we feed them.

Today I’m grateful every time the child I once was decides to visit me…

The one who loved to ride a bike out in the rain…

or climb to the top of the highest tree…

The one who would walk out in the evening

turn his gaze up high…

and wonder who turns on the light in the moon

and why are there starfish in the sky.

Today I’m grateful for a mother’s love…as it’s easy to perceive

Their love began not when we are born…

but on the day we were conceived.

And it grows more brilliant with every sunset…

more vibrant with every dawn

So powerful is a mother’s love…

we are able to continue to feel it…

even after they gone.

May we be blessed to feel Seatherny 

It’s such a beautiful word…

It is the serenity one feels when listening 

to the chirping of the birds

May we be blessed to understand

from one big moment to the next 

most of our life is living the moments in between..

and perhaps the best way to a happy life

is to find the beauty in the routine.

Today I’m grateful for remembering not to judge a person

by the person I initially see…

realizing I never know the kind of person

that person will turn out to be.

Today I’m grateful for unconditional love….

Love comes in many forms…

from uncommon to traditional

but perhaps the purest form of love

is the love completely unconditional.
