Gratitude

 For legs to carry me and a little dog to keep me company.  For ducks taking their time browsing along the creek bank................
 ...........a beautiful feather
 ..........a robin feasting on chokecherries
 ..........beautiful early autumn color
................for even decking out the alley in blazing color
...........for heavy laden apple trees (the deer will love it this winter)
..........and for a cool glass of ice water back home,  I'm thankful.                    Diane

Amen - with gratitude for your sharing. Noticing the amazing beauty that exists so quietly all around us is a gift. I loved the last one - when so many in the world don't have access to clean water, we live in a paradise where it's available on demand. That glass made me thirsty!
