Gratitude

I want to thank you very kindly.

Much obliged… Much obliged.

This overwhelming gratitude is

Like a cleansing breath of Spring.

 

Though I hate to feel indebted

I will take your gift in stride

With all the foils and burdens

Magnanimity can bring.

 

Can’t forget to give a shout out.

That would be rude… Very rude.

Kindness needs to be rewarded

Else we fail all sense of grace.

 

Never want to lose perspective,

Everything is attitude to

Quid pro quo and clearly know

You’ve put a smile on someone’s face.

 

Kindness never should be slighted or

Treated with trite platitude,

When it takes but a moment

To express our sincere gratitude.
