memories


I thank my God every time I remember you,” Philippians 1:3

the stranger who waved me
ahead of them at the store;
the little child who gave me
their shy-dimpled smile;
the therapist who challenged me
to take another hesitant step;
may my memories of them
at the end of the day
be my prayer of thanksgiving
to you for these unexpected
gifts
