Today my heart is ever thankful.
I am thankful for all the gifts from all of you
to help me get better.
I am thankful for all the good wishes,
healing magic bubbles and prayers.
I am thankful for your love,
and circle of paws.
I am thankful to the Universe
for the gift of life.
I am thankful for the sunrays
that shone down on my shoulders
when I was weak.
I am thankful to the stars and moon
who watch me sleeps.
I am thankful for today.
Two winters ago,
my friend Angel Stubby
sent me a poster poem on
thankfulness.
The words became a part my heart then,
and will be forever and ever.
My lips could never speak
with words
as the writers of this poem have done.
I shared these words with you before,
andbecause I am so thankful
I share these words again
with you and our land.
Forever grateful I am.
