I am all that I am
because of you
I have learned all
I watched and I listened
from the days in the womb
through all the years until now
your loving grace billowed out into the universe
my guiding light
it shines on me
a beacon to myself
always behind me lifting me
holding my heart in your hands
you taught by example
your strength so visible
perseverance so viable
I learned the good the bad the ugly
and I learned what to do with each
to have such a gift is a miracle
to be a part of such love – awe-inspiring
I honor the one who has given me life
the mother the father the light
I honor the one who sustains my life
day in day out
touching my heart with a whisper of kindness
reminds me of the journey I walk
over fields through streams climbing mountains
my heart is alive with the wonder of possibilities
my days are filled with beautiful surprises
that come in a second and leave the most beautiful scent
the scent of contentment
it lingers it creates it believes
it just is
Blessitude
