Thank you
For the voices
That guides my way

Thank you
For the love
That nourishes my spirit

Thank you
For the lessons
Even when I don’t
Want to hear it

Thank you
For giving me the strength
To bear the pains

Because without it
The insanity of
miseducation
Would drive me insane

The miseducation
Of how to love
One another

How to have respect
Peace and Grace
And Praise for each other

Thank you
For the mirrors
That shows me my face

So that I can
Recognize it
When I see it
Reflected back to me
From some other place

And when it gets too dark
Thank you
For the light

Thank you
for the birds
that sing me awake

Thank you
for the ability
to take a walk
around my favorite lake

Thank you
For the wisdom
To listen to you
Because when I don’t
You always know
What to do

Thank you God
For giving me wings

Thank you God
For everything
