a gift

i woke up
i can walk
i can see
i can breathe...all on my own
i can hear...my daughter already up and showering
i am alive.
my heart is beating
my body can move
i can smell toast cooking
i can think about putting the coffee on
i can take my dog outside
and down the steps
i can move my fingers over these keys
i can read a good morning text from my son
i can make plans
i have time to love
i woke up
another day
another gift


blessings.
