It occurs to me,
my life is full of meaning,
rich tapestry,
woven by family,
textured by friends.

I want to say, thank you God,
that I don’t know what I’ve done
to deserve this,
this respect, this love
and the broad smile of happy faces.
Without want, without need.
And, I want to show my appreciation,
and I want to say, thank you God.
