Gratitude

The breath through my lungs that was not promised still arrived today

My sight that helps me perceive the world I live in

Was on time to helps me catch the sunrise

I heard music so sweet I had to bask in each note, giving gratitude to each ear

As my hands clapped

So did my hips move

All the while my feet kept me steady

And all of this before breakfast was ready

The real treat?

Of course, that's between my heartbeat and my heartbeats

That's between what was and what will be

And certainly we can't forget faith

For even as small as a mustard seed

It never fails to carry me
