"Grateful for" poetry exercise

Hey, everyone!
Name one thing, silly or serious, an everyday thing or not, that you are thankful for. The person below has to construct a poem based on that, or how it may relate to them. Let's have fun with this and get those poetic fingers writing and sparking some inspiration here.

I'm grateful for... butter.

Good one!

Butter (Senryu)

Try to stay away;
margarine and goat butter,
two peas in a... STROKE!

--
I am grateful for a gift called... Brain.

Brain (Acrostic)

Bewildered by the universe I
Reached for last specks of sanity within me
And my soul savored its sweetness. For
I have forgotten its
Natural tastes.

I am grateful for shoes !!!

^ eyes was better than shoes IMO:)

Title: Homelessness (Senyru)

feet bleed immensely
for a pair of shoes while stepped
on broken, sharped glass

——

I’m grateful for ... babies.

Title a reason to go on

babes born, screaming wildly
vivid anguished faces
melting this stubborn old heart
before we met
I existed only as an effigy
potential crammed into negativity
yet those tiny little fingers
wrapped around one of mine
points me to a better future
guiding me to a purpose
understanding now dawns
I live for my babies.

I'm grateful for ... the past

Somehow, I manage,
and isn't it astounding
that through all our pain,
the mountains we once
regarded as obstructions,
we've found a way to
climb over.

over the despair, the
humility that the past
has bestowed on us.
We're hurt, there's no
diminishing there,
yet we understand
ourselves just a little
better.

I'm grateful for... animal companions.

My throat itches,
as I tried to swallow
your fur was stuck
and I couldn’t breath.

Still I downed my pill,
and your paw rested on
my palm, as I brushed
your back carefully.
