A Birthday Gratitude

Kadija Diallo 1974 (Geneva)

Free verse
A Birthday  Gratitude

Thank You for yesterday, today and tomorrow
So grateful to have experienced the morn of my years
In the Planet of Earth
Its just around midday
With the sun climaxing its zenith
Paving the path to the noontide of my being
In this physical  realm of an experience
Infusing light on engraved memories of my compendium so far ...
Elements of  feelings, thoughts and emotions
Will furthermore be of company
As I author my little book of Life


Kadija
