These are some of the blessings that i forget to be
thankful for. I've been too negative lately, when
I should be counting my blessings


Blessings sometimes that slip my mind..

Most of my time
on this earth I
spent in the Light
because you and
now my son have
blessed my life

There is my wife
no doubt she is
a blessing too
she tolerates me
and that's more
than you should
ask any woman to do

There are my friends
and believe me I've
been more than blessed
with special ones
Doc, Evelyn, Kathy, Cindy,
that's just to name some

There's my family, well
at least My younger sister (Bee)
and My Mom
My sister is my heart
and My Mom she would be
like my right arm

A main reason for my
strength that is to say
She is the one person
that has seen to it
that I make it to this day

There is my son a
main source of my Light
the Light in my soul
and the strength in my life

There is my wife
who (a minor understatement)
keeps me on my toes
she has taught me to embrace
what means alot to me without
her who knows

Then there is you Kiddo
a major combination of
everything I've mentioned
above
You have taught me more
of everything I said plus
you've taught me the
meaning of love

Sometimes we feel so lost and so full of anger that we forget about all the good things and people in our lives. It sounds like you are surrounded by people that really love you!
Excellent poem! I really enjoyed it!

Will this is a lovely poetic expression of your gratitude as you count your blessings. It is good to stop and think of what we do have instead of lingering on what we don't have. Thank you for reminding me of this. You are a strong poetic man with a large and tender heart -- a perfect combination. : )
