A thank you poem for God

Thank you

What is thank you?

It's eight letters put together

and two words in many songs,

but talking about Thanksgiving,

What should I have to be thankful for?

Dear God, I know you're awesome.

There have been so many times

when I've been looking to the skies,

or talking to my friends, or laying in my bed

and I had always given you thanks.

But today it is special and I guess that is why

I would like to say "thank you"

for being a part in my life.

Thank you for your mercy and love,

thank you for never letting me go;

for your kindness and your patience

for your "yes", your "not yet" and your "no",

for my family and friends and for always being the same.

For your son who came from Heaven

to show us the only way.

For Jesus' sacrifice

and your Holy Spirit guide;

thank you for what you're doing

and for always making me smile.

Thank you for being so good

and looking into my heart,

for believing that I can do,

what sometimes I think is too hard;

But I know that I can do it

'cause you are by my side,

and it is because of your strength

that I am doing different things.

So, one more time I want to give you

from the bottom of my heart

a thank you Heavenly Father

a lots of thanks for who you are.
