Gratitude Is

Gratitude is

appreciation for people, places, and things, as well as,

for ideas, qualities, and feelings

Gratitude is

thankfulness, and I use it like a key

A key to inspire strangers, my friends, and me

A key to life that sets me free

A key to heal insult and injury

A key to awareness, when I refuse to dream

A key to finding forgiveness and feeling peace

A key to manifest my desires, what I want, and who I want to be

A key to light the dark times, when I can’t see

Inspiration

Inspiration, thou fickle friend
Come in my moments of despair
Forcing the pen onto the paper
Forcing words from my mind

Thou allowest feelings tro go free
However sad I am,
Thou allowest my soul
To reveale itself

Inspiration, thou hast come back
Was it lack of a muse
Or lack of feeling
Thou wast pushed away

Welcome back
Thou, divine inspiration
