Thank you for the robin's song
That sings so sweetly in the trees.
Thank you for the warmth of sunshine
The light caresses of each breeze!
Thank you for the bright blue sky
The soothing green upon the hill!
Thank you for the fragrant flowers,
The babbling brook down by the mill.
Thank you for the love of family,
Abundant joy, each morning new!
Thank you for the joy of friendships,
All good things, God, come from you!
Thank you that you send upon us
Awesome blessings every day!
Thank you that You are my Father!
You'll never leave me, come what may!

Thank you for this reminder of all the things for which we should be giving thanks.
Staying the same forever, sounds like Sherlock Holmes.
Thank you for the ducks egg that is my breakfast.
Thank you for the duck that occasionally is my dinner.
Your photo of the duck, which is a water duck when I was young. This is part of my f=roots when I was young. I helped my mum rear ducks.
Beautiful! So many things to be thankful for, and you have expressed so many of them in this lovely poem, Karin.
