The necessities of life I too often take for granted
But they ensure my life on the planet.
I give thanks for clean, gentle moving air
Most days of it I am unaware.
I give thanks for solid ground beneath my feet
Pure, life-supporting soil that nurtures the foods I eat.
I give thanks for clean water to quench my thirst
Shelter to protect me from nature’s worst.
I give thanks for my body, soul, and mind
My healthy connections with humankind.
Today I make my grateful way
On the path leading up to Thanksgiving Day.
