To Cultivate a Heart of Thankfulness
By looking for your graceful movement
In every circumstance.
Today we thank you, Lord,
For milky smiles at the breakfast table
For freshly pressed uniforms and combed hair
For the simple pleasures of morning life together.
You grant us treasures everyday:
Wrapped gifts of holy in the middle of our common.
Here we were talking about saying grace and you crafted a gorgeous one all your own.
Thank you for sharing!
Love this. So much. “Milky smiles” – what a great phrase.
We’re working on a poetry unit and I keep telling my students to just give it a try. Yesterday I finally took my own advice.
Well-done. I admire both your poetry and your poster boy.

I love it! Beautifully written! And that young man in the picture is absolutely precious!
I’m with Cheri. “wrapped gifts of holy in the middle of our common” was my favorite part! Well that, and the adorable face to the left of this post. =)
