Thankings

I am speechless
When I shouldn’t be.
I’m nine lepers no less
You’re King Lear of our times
Filial ingratitude
Ungrateful wretch
Begrudgery of minutes
To God who gave years
And still gives,
Glad to be alive…
But inarticulate
Taken for granted
The greatest gifts
Used, unused, unwrapped, returned.

Thank you for the days
Sorry about the minutes
Thank you for the music
Abba, Father.
We praise you, we bless you,
We fail to thank you.
