When you’re
seeking something
to be grateful for,
look upon the sunset
and recall
how wonderful it is
that creation wasn’t formed
in only black and white.

Thankful
I’ve been a lot of things:
eager
reserved
euphoric
morose
confused
and
incorrigible,
but, today,
I am only
thankful
to have you.
Thanksgiving Eve: On Human Nature
It is difficult to determine
whether
having a day set aside for gratitude
is a cause for celebration
or for shame.
We don’t ascribe days to
breathing
or
waking
or
thinking
because we do those things, always.
What a thorough humiliation
that we cannot say the same
for thankfulness.
Thanksgiving Week: On Gratitude
As the pieces of your heart
gather around your feast,
may your food be gratitude
and your words be peace.
A day of reflection
for the treasures undeserved,
may your gratefulness overflow,
full and unreserved.
