The Many Hues of Gratitude

Immense gratitude for the big and little things

Acceptance that sadness is part of the scene

Despite some days that utterly mystify

Recounting the ways life is far from awry


Husband tapping to a song we love on cue

Gathering fall leaves of different hues

Researching things like an intrepid geek

Grandkid and us playing hide-and-seek


Picking up with friends without missing a beat

Forgotten pictures holding memories so neat

Road trips and flights ending uneventfully

Kids checking on us unhurriedly


Your presence in our lives makes us cheer

As you replenish us from far and near

Time spent preparing to grow old together

Being close to family with an invisible tether


Anticipation for excitement yet to soar

Finishing a good book and still wanting more

Treasured colleagues we admire greatly

Wise words to nourish our souls gently


Family adventures we reminisce for years

Lost ones in our hearts to allay our fears

Incredible wonder of the stars and moon

Quietude of sitting by a fire such a boon


Precious moments caring for beloved elders

Nurturing memories that will be our shelters

Vagaries of life that keep us attentive

Thrill of finding joy when we least expect it
