THANKS TO ALL

I wish to thank the trees
For the shade they made
On the hot and crispy days

I'd like to thank the flowers that bloom
That leave their scent in every room
With the blossoms that they made

I'd like to thank the God above
For giving me someone to love
More than the sun that warms my heart

I'd like to thank the family I've made
Here on poetbay that grows day by day
With all my friends that read my post

I'd like to thank all that came before
For showing me the way
Of how to write each and every day

Thank you all......

I like this very much, Alan. I believe we should all express our gratitude for all our experiences. Each experience adds to what we are at that moment... even those that turn out to be less enjoyable. In my opinion your poem expresses a very lovely style of thinking. Blessings, Allen
