Thankful

by Sally Law


~**~
Of all the things I'm most thankful for
And hold so closely to my heart,
It is the vows we exchanged,
Our promises to God.
Like a vibrant tree
Our roots dug in,
And our hearts
Became
One.
*
From
This tree,
Sons came forth.
New life with seeds,
Our children, now grown.
Fragrant blossoms appeared,
A mingling of love's pure scents. 
Our fine saplings reach for the skies,
Sharing fruit and shade with everyone.
