Song of Gratitude

Song of Gratitude

Dimeji Salau

Thanks to all the thick that not let down the thin
Thanks to all the thin that tolerated the thick
Thanks to all that live and let other live
Thanks to all the eyes that see and let other see
Thanks to all that help when all seems to be over
Thanks to all that provide water when thirst looms

Sometimes life realities may be harsh
But if we are to live perpetually in our individuality
Selfishness will reign forever

I have searched the world
Looking for enduring bliss and harmony
And everytime I meet good people
I know life goes on
Because their goodness lives on.
