Saying Thank You Does Not Seem Enough
I am humbled by each and everyone of you
I was going to wait for nine more subscribers before I write this piece.
Why?
Because I’m currently sitting on 141 subscribers.
But then the realisation hit me, I should not withhold my gratitude because of a number. Why is the number 141 not enough to show my gratitude?
So to the 141 people who have hit my “subscribe” button, this I send to you. From my pen to your ears, I honour you for your support!
**********************************************************************
A few short months ago
I found my courage,
To publish my writing
Worried I’d be disparaged.
***
I was in awe
At your reaction,
You lifted my worry, and
My subscribers gained traction.
***
I’ve grown so much
In just a short time,
All due to your support
As my portfolio climbed.
***
I love the mix of subscribers
All walks of life included,
All different in your own right
No particular identity excluded.
***
Some silently read and heart
And that’s perfectly okay,
Others share words of wisdom
And I listen to what you say.
***
I’d even goes as far to feel
I’ve made a friend or two,
Maybe a rare deeper connection
That I do truly value.
***
So for every one of the 141
That have honoured me,
You’ve raised my confidence
To a much greater degree.
***
So I say with love
A huge “Thank You”,
To each and all
As is your due.
***
However, thank you
Doesn’t seem to do,
Deserving of more
I give my gratitude too.

My first love is poetry — it’s like a desperate need to write, to free up space in my mind, to escape the constant noise in my head. Most of the time the poems write themselves — I’m just the conduit holding the metaphorical pen.
