Miracles

The Things We Take for Granted

Open your eyes

And see

That glorious things

Happen to you and me

To be able to wake up

And take that fresh breath of air

To smile at the sun

And feel it's warmth

Gracefully touching your skin

To wander

Into a dark and gloomy place

To turn around

And see a gift

In front of your face

Maybe a goodbye

Or a welcome back home

A treasured moment

Of a miracle so bright

This positive outcome

Has brought me back to life

The opening of a door

That I thought was closed

For a century or more

So very grateful

For this dream come true

You are a love

That I once knew

So I just want to say

Thank you
