Gratitude

sees the good in things

and drops it’s anchor there.

 

 

Like muscle

gratitude grows

when it’s put to work.

 

It is active

not passive

moving mountains

to find diamonds in the rock.

 

Gratitude is vocal

it speaks to what is working-

it always says the kind thing.

Gratitude

gives dreams flight

makes chores light

puts hearts right.

 

Gratitude sees where others are blind,

the shine beneath tarnish

a win above loss

the appointment inside disappointment.

 

It is a joy-filled seeker of

love

faith

beauty

and hope.

There is always hope.

 

Gratitude banks on its benefits

is humbled by its riches.

 

Though the journey is far from over

gratitude celebrates the distance it has come

and it sees God

everywhere.

 

Gratitude

grasps for the good

gives what it gets

and calls to the Greatness in everyone.

 

To gratitude

the cup is not half full…

it is gushing a geyser.
