Everything Under the Sun...And then some

This post is written as part of Mama Kat's Writer's Workshop, with my thanks for the outlet in which to express myself...

3.) Write a poem about the things you are thankful for.

I am thankful for my education

And for successfully climbing the Alpine Tower on vacation

I am thankful for my ability to write

It helps me express myself so I can sleep at night

I am thankful for being an identical twin

It’s certainly a situation, I’d call win-win

I am thankful for close friends though they number only a few

I have a mix of old and new

I am thankful for our pet cat

Though she stalks us until we say “scat”

I am thankful for my Dad and his advice

I know down deep he is trying to be nice

Finally, I am thankful for divine intervention and the ability to pray

For in His outstretched arms, I’ll always have a place to stay
