THANKSGIVING Gratitude: By Polly Guerin

















Haunting hungry faces remind me\
To remember how fortunate we are
To have abundant food--

Jobless, Joyless unemployed remind us
To remember how fortunate we are
To have work--

Abandoned aimless homeless remind us
To remember how fortunate we are
To have a safe home--

Suffering sick despair remind us
To remember how fortunate we are
To live without pain--

Charitable Giving Causes remind us
To remember how fortunate we are
To have funds to contribute--

Silent Sentinel beggars remind us
To Remember how fortunate we are
To show compassion--

Strangers stranded remind us 
To remember how fortunate we are
To give help--

Soldiers soldering alone remind us
To remember how fortunate we are
To acknowledge their sacrifice--

Seniors silently waiting remind us
To remember how fortunate we are
To give them comfort--

Thanksgiving celebrations remind us
To remember how fortunate we are
To partake in the bounty.

ABUNDANCE: By Polly Guerin

 














One's worth should not ever be measured
It's your abundant life vow now to treasure

Keep watch on unexpected blessing flowing
Set in motion, practice  generosity knowing

Your finances are not your total worth
It's the good deeds you're doing on earth

With plenty to share be kind, play it forward
Support others, encouragement is their reward

Practice generosity with a listening heart
Improve someone's life before they depart

Your prosperity overflows from generous acts
Give and receive blessings these are the facts

Your abundant wisdom will never wear out
Your generous heart is what you're about

The more you give, a granted return is the test
A knowing helper, like you, granted  the best

Because you're far richer than ever before
Making life bearable for others evens the score

Share gifts of love with family and friends
Adds up your abundant tally in the end.

INSPIRE: By Polly Guerin













On the wings of  this new Covid morning
I lift up my inspired heart now soaring

To greater heights of newfound compassion
Joy to the world with love is my passion

Releasing doubt and unfound fear
A new life emerges that is very clear

Spreading kindness, empathy and love
Inspired by Scriptures from up above

I will speak words of world peace
I celebrate openness and release

imprint your generous mark today
Open your heart to a bright new ray

Of sunshine spreading everywhere
Do it with loving, thoughtful care

Make time of others and yourself
Put past grievances on the shelf

Words that soothe a wounded heart
Do it now before you leave and depart

Share your talent  and treasures, too
Time gives the opportunity to renew

Bring sunshine to brighten someone's day
With kindness and generosity don't delay

Send gifts of inspiration to family and friends
Increases your happiness quotient in the end.
