The Road Ahead
The road ahead
is steep
and winding
it leads
we know not where
but today
today
I am thankful
thankful
for the beautiful view
of where I have been
the people I have met along the way
today
I am grateful
grateful
for family
friends
food in abundance
home
meaningful work
today
I am hopeful
hopeful
for children
who see the world with wonder
love one another without judging
whose sticky hands hug with joy
and fall into life giggling
The road ahead
is steep
and winding
it leads
we know not where
but today
today
I am thankful
thankful
that you travel by my side
ease the burdens
share the joys
look ahead with hope
and make room
for others to join us along the way
today
I am thankful
