THANK YOU AGAIN
Thank you may be
A bit overused
But it’s nice to hear
Once in awhile
They say it’s the simplest
Thing to say
Doesn’t have to be pulled out
As a formality
Just short and sweet will do
It makes me want to do more
Reach a bit higher
If there’s no thank you
It’s a vacuum I’m looking at
There will never be
A thank you again
It stifles my appreciation
It says so much more
Than the simplest thing
If I acknowledge you
Even a little bit
I’ll discourage you
I want more
You are not enough
I’m up here and you are
(fill in the blank)
It’s so intentional
It leaves me cold
The most basic needs
Are satisfied with the
Simplest offerings
Someone arrives at my door
Can I offer you something to drink
Have you eaten
Thank you for stopping by
Thanks again for the thoughts
Or the small kindness just given
You are welcome in my world
Just as you are
Thank you
Again
