GRATITUDE

Hands open wide,
Words in shapes of cheer,
Always there to fill a company's space,
All from you to me.
I am pleased,
So, I show gratitude.

Do you ever wonder why a thank you matters when good is shared from others to you?
See why!

Gratitude is sunlight to the green plant of kindness,
A moist soil that makes the flower of generosity blossom.
When in form of commendation,
It builds up.
It gladdens the heart,
And keeps the flame of doing more burning.
It has powers to move a stagnant mind,
steering the feeling of butterflies in the stomach.

Gratitude is a priceless gift,
A peace to the giver,
And a lift to the receiver!

What a feel-good poem. My personal favourite phrase is: "keeps the flame of doing more burning." Magnificent. The last stanza is quite true.

True 👍 'Gratitude is a sunlight....' We must learn to show our gratitude towards people who beside us, help us and treat us with love.

You painted a beautiful picture in my mind with your descriptions. A true depiction of "show, don't tell".
