Thank You

Reflecting: He told me I would thank him one day because he left me. After a move out of state, a very good job offer, loss of weight, making new friends and a new life for myself, I sent him my very first poem.


THANK YOU FOR FINDING SOMEONE ELSE

Thank you for the loving times we shared together,
For the fun of boating, skiing, camping and walking hand-in-hand.

Thank you for the plays, art shows, trips and beautiful red roses.

THANK YOU FOR FINDING SOMEONE ELSE

Thank you for giving me two beautiful children,
For the special times when you were kind, considerate and loving.

Thank you for knowing that I would be stronger without you,
For telling me that I would thank you one day.

THANK YOU FOR FINDING SOMEONE ELSE

Thank you for giving me the opportunity of knowing my own strengths,
For getting to know myself and who I really am.

Thank you for the chance to know what peace of mind really is.

THANK YOU FOR FINDING SOMEONE ELSE

Thank you for telling me I would thank you one day,
Today is that day. Thank You.
