Thankfulness

I give thanks my love

For the space to breathe,

For allowing my curiosities

Free reign to find treasure

In that which most would deem mundane.

I give thanks my love

For shared days and nights,

Summer rays

Warm blankets through winter's chill,

Rainstorms

Music

Strolls through Autumn's leaf-strewn streets.

I'm thankful for the comfort of family

To love and be loved in return,

For strangers who become friends

Friends who become closer

Through late-night conversation,

Grateful

For a chance to somehow help it all make sense.

I give thanks for acceptance and non-judgement

For eyes that see truth but still find beauty,

For passion

Desire

Warm oatmeal and hot tea

Children's laughter

Memories,

Secrets

Trust.

And you.

To all of my friends in the US, A very Happy Thanksgiving. ♥
