in the longest year I have ever known
the one that started just yesterday
a million years ago
in this year where so much changed
even more stayed the same
in this year of sometimes sadness
and discovery of things never imagined
in this year where words have grown
matching spirit and heart
I find that I am thankful
I am thankful for beauty and beacons
I am thankful for new friends
old friends
stars
home
hearth
I am thankful for heart musings
for laughter
hugs
and compassion
in the longest year ever
(the one that started yesterday)
I find that I am thankful
