30-Day Finale; TMGI Day 30

Thank you for taking the

Time to humor

My 30-day challenge

To see if I knew more

Than I realized on

How to resource

The inspiring thanks

Through my protracted discourse.

 

Gratitude for words,

For coffee and effort;

Design, my grandfather,

And Rabindrath Tagore;

 

For rolling my car,

And my arm’s ink;

For Abracadaba

And a shave at the sink.

 

Inspired by mercy,

And music of swing,

By enjoying the process,

And by things not seen;

 

By the concerts I’ve attended,

And when the desert does rain;

By opera, Pavarotti,

And by a teacher named Jane.

 

Inspired by Rome,

The City Eternal;

By driving alone,

And a love paternal.

 

Grateful for the struggle,

For tech low and high;

For Caravaggio’s art,

And for candles in pie.

 

The one final thing

I’m inspired by too

Is that time was taken

To read these by you.

 

Happy Thanksgiving.
