A heart may be thankful for a great many things
And when given unconditionally it can’t but fly on wings
Some hearts are thankful that they can give
Others are thankful to receive for through it alone they live
Giving not in great gifts that glitter and shine
But in little words or actions whose value one cannot determine
A word of consolation to an aggrieved heart
A wish of good luck before the race does start
A gentle pat on the back for a job well done
A soft arm to cry on when consolation there is none
A compliment whispered in the ear is worth more than a crown
For such tender affection, in materials cannot be found
A mouth that speaks gentle words when all else criticize
Sends a flood of hope into the heart to conquer its desire
A word of thanks is nothing to one who has been of aid
As compared to the sparkle in the eye, which every debt repays
A lost soul does appreciate a lamp in the dark
A guiding word is all it takes to reclaim the lost ark
The twinkling eye of someone who’s stood through thick and thin
Is worth a million times over than the thrill of the hard fought win
When you’ve put you feet in your mouth where it matters most
A wink and a smile from a confidant will make it a quaint joke
A hand to hold in troubles, a shoulder to cry on in pain
These are the things to thank God for, and in your heart they remain
It is these small gestures and incidents in life that people, does mould,
And the persons who’ve shared them with us, our affection does enfold
These simple memories are treasured by the soul
And in recollection we smile and thank them silently once more
