“Being Grateful” © G. Navar September 26, 2026
being grateful, pretty much every day,
embracing my gravitas and the
warm walls of inner vision,
strength and divine sound…
I honor, celebrate the poetry
that’s told, engraved, much
similar to an owl’s stare,
around the corner, whispers,
a murder of crows,
found in the fold,
found in the length of
the stretch of a sunrise,
reflected in the stare, the gaze of the eyes of
an ostrich, leaping, yearning,
enjoying the warm walls
of inner vision…
nature’s embrace is
a blessing, for this I am
forever thankful,
every day I am grateful
I stand here, being grateful….
