Gratitude
How are you?
Really, are you okay?
Today must’ve been a hard game to play
Putting on a face of joy
And pretending the world is like a toy
Maybe if you just play along you’ll make it to the next day
But that is really not the way
Focusing on the future makes the day go by
But you really need to look deeper than the normal rise and shine
Look at the sun performing twice a day
And the birds singing and harmonizing away
How the rain showers so steady
And the rainbow waits until it’s ready
The trees stretch and give you shade
They don’t really care if they get paid
They give their home to those in need
And give you a nice place to relax and read
They wind pushes you into having a skip in your step
And the water reflects and shows off it’s great depths
Look at the world so delicate
In this world we somehow met
Be grateful for all that is given to us
And focus on the things that are more than just musts
