I am grateful for 
     
     The sound of water
     Chillin’ with my daughter
     Seeing that thing, could it have been an otter

     Dipping my knees in the ocean 
     Watching the day go by in slow motion
     Not forgetting to put on my sun tan lotion

     The discomfort of sand between my toes
     Wearing air-conditioned clothes
     Scents that do not offend my nose

And when the day is through 
I am happy I shared it with you

I’ve been sorting all my random writings and found this poem I wrote when Dee and I were in Cuba last year.
