thoughts lead to thank God
I am grateful - for the taxes I pay,
means because I have work and income.
- for pants that sit a bit too tight,
because that means I have enough to eat.
- for the mess after the party, I clean up the need
means because I was surrounded by loving people.
- for the lawn mowed, windows that need to be cleaned,
because that means I have a home.
- for the loud voiced complaints about the government
because that means we live in a free country and have the right to freedom of expression.
- for the parking space at the back in the far corner of the parking lot,
means because I can afford a car.
- for the woman in the town, which sits behind me wrong, sings
means because I can hear.
- for the laundry and the ironing mountain,
because that means that I have enough clothes.
- for fatigue and aching muscles at the end of the day,
because that means I am capable of hard work.
- for the alarm clock that rings in the morning,
means because that is given to me a new day.
