Poem Start Each Day with a Grateful Heart by Tom Stodulka 15 June 2024

A good title don’t you think?

Found in my bedside notebook.

And thinking this is a good look,

For some final writing of Tom’s Top 100.

A new book, so close on the horizon,

May even  be your last,

We know the die is cast.

That is life.

As you try to deal with strife.

And a challenge or two or three.

You often run around like a busy bee,

This way and that,

All a bit old hat.

Though never bored,

Still energised to take up your sword.

And hopefully praying to the Lord.

Still lots to achieve,

No rush to leave.

Think fast but prefer slow.

Every which way you go.

As you travel along life’s highway.

Each and every day.

Hopefully with a grateful heart.

Always guarantees a good start.

There might be a loss or even a win.

And always a smile and a grin.

Cheers you and others up,

As you enjoy your first warm cup.
