FOR A GRANDDAUGHTER'S BIRTHDAY--2 YEARS OLD

Prayer/Poems from I PRAY ANYWAY--Devotions for the Ambivalent!

Thank you thank you thank you
For this sharp, sun-lit Winter day
For all the comforts I have
Books
Beauty
Plenty of people to love
Fun food to cook
Words to write
Possibilities to grow
Incredibly blessed
And for one glorious moment, I know it 
With no equivocation

It's so easy to forget a miracle
It joins he day to day so fast
Then back to yearning all over again
Maybe numbed out is the way it has to be
Or we'd be overtaken by grandeur
We'd explode with wonder and gratitude
Just "pop" and disintegrate with joy
