FOR WARMTH
Thanks, God, for warmth.
For the sun coming up like hope,
Like joy in the morning,
Laying a gentle hand on my hair,
Melting the sharpness of the world.
Thanks, God, for warmth.
For warm clothes, warm rooms,
A warm bed.
For warm-bodies animals. Cats. Dogs.
Warm water to wash in,
Tea, soup, warm bread,
A fire on the hearth,
Warm friendships,
Kindness from a stranger.
Thanks, God, for warmth.
It feels like Your smile.
