Ding-dong-ding – doorbell
Unexpected so early

Imposter syndrome runs wild
Sharing art is risky-
Support in pursuit of dream

Nov 27th
Thoughts of family missed
Filling my brain-smiles and tears
Joy and sad intwine
My Dad shows his needed love
(This tea bag is from the company my Dad worked at for many years. I keep it because it is the last one I have. It is always in my cupboard. I was missing my dad, mom and sister on the holiday. I opened my cupboard to get a mug and this happened to fall out. I believe it was my Dad telling me he is still near and making me smile. Grateful for this message of love from heaven)
Nov 28th
Gift of hockey game
4 tickets to Sabres game

Chilly morning walk
Meeting dear out-of-town friends
Along canal path
Friendly chatter warmed the air
Nov 30th
Thirty Tankafuls
Written syllables of thanks
Daily life moments
Events- appreciative eyes
This daily practice of writing a poem focused on gratitude made me view my daily routines with different eyes. I was always on the lookout for a small ordinary moment that brought positivity to my day. Once you start looking, you notice many more than one item a day to be thankful for. I am thankful for those of you who read my poems.
