Thankful

For: the rustle of warm bedclothes;
the distant dark noise of the ocean;
a coyote yip in the night;
the sigh of a lover satisfied;
an adversary’s sudden pause;
a shared laugh;
electric light to write by;
books that seize my heart;
a child without need;
the gasp of a friend’s insight;
a dog’s warm tongue;
the edge of sleep;
a list of these things with no end.
