Ode to 2017

 

I bow my head in gratitude to you

With all your ups and downs

Your twists and turns had my head spinning

And my heart trembling

 

I honor your role in my growth

And my healing

I honor the gifts of courage and hope

You showered upon me

 

Even when I didn’t like them

 

You pulled the rug out from under me

And then laid before me the red carpet

You brought me to my knees

And taught me how to pray

 

You challenged my beliefs

You took the wind out of my sails

And then showed me the silver lining

You taught me the true meaning of gratitude

 

You ripped my heart out

Then filled it with love

Your sword cut through my life

And your grace filled the holes that remained

 

For all the opportunities to walk my walk

For all the messages that restored my faith

For all the reminders that I did not walk alone

For the hope that fills me now

 

I am forever grateful.
