Giving Thanks and Praise

 

I’ve already told you all I know.


That may be a silly way to begin


a poem.



Besides, unless what I have said


included you personally, all of


that could be summarily dismissed


as hearsay, and not considered


admissible in a court of law.



Suffice it to say with all the infor-


mation I have presented in so many


words today, our lives have been


similar in so many ways, and for


the most part you and I can relate.



We have both experienced birth and


death in our lives, have run the gamut


of emotions per se, have loved, hated


won and lost, have been subjected


to pleasure and pain.



We breathe in and out circulating


rich red blood through our veins.


Had a good laugh or cry lately?


Why, of course you have.



And curse the evil you have seen


and endured. And be thankful


for all the good which remains.


We are indeed made of the same


stuff, you and I, yet are uniquely


us in our own way. Thank the


Creator of Life for that.



Thanksgiving and praise. Oh


Happy Day, One and All!
