Why do I measure my day by checks on a list?
I should count the smiles, laughs, and grins.
The hugs and high-fives
Should help bring me to life.
The people I give time
Should be respectful of mine.
The snuggles I get
Remind me to love til death.
I should check off each time joy
Feels like getting a new toy.
Focus on crossing off gratitude daily
And I'll enjoy life again, just maybe.
