Gratitude
(A Lune)
Be thankful for all
things given
in and of the heart
For joy and laughter,
compassion
and hugs from afar
The moon and the stars,
friends that love,
a baby's first tooth
Words that bless your soul,
forgiveness ...
and the will to change
Form Poetry is Fun! 10
Hosted by Al Thomas
The Lune was invented and named
by poet Robert Kelly in the 1960's
out of a dissatisfaction with our
Western use of haiku. The form is
often called The American Haiku.
