Gratitude occupies in my core,
A notion
that fills every representation.

I take into account
my favor period to time.
Relieved for each pace of the method.

For the star that stirs me in the aurora.
For the inspiration in my lungs each birth.

For the smiles I collect from strangers,
For the joy in instants that won't last perpetually.

For the ardor of an intimates welcome.
For the leaning that pervades all of my period.

For the minute articles that propose me order.
For the occasions that never halt.

Gratitude is a melody of all inspiration.
A melody that makes me intact.

For this animation, I am frankly flaming.
Appreciation is what I confess.
