I love this. Five stars! I talk to my horses all the time, too. To my favorites list!
Everyday that we have on this earth is a blessing, even walking to a mailbox and and enjoying the scenery it is all part of the magic of living. It has been way to long since I read one of your magical poems Susan
It funny how little animals that visit our yards can affect us. Especially when we are coming to grips with our own mortality. Your poem impacted me greatly.
Such an inspiring poem. Joy and pleasures of everyday life beaming through with such beauty and vigor! Thank you Susan!
I had bought the peanuts for the squirrels to motivate me to walk. Your poem is a far greater motivator!
I love your facets of joy that you are putting in chronicles, a good way to count blessings amid the pandemic
Wonderfully crafted woven by a heart full of gratefulness. I concur with the great comments of Father Kostas. To my Poem List.

And on the way to the mailbox today/ I walked and talked with God today/ and I thanked Him for my legs today /so rise up and walk, my friend, while you may..... You've found the very essence of living happily! Great poem
A most beautiful poem Susan full of wisdom and insight. Let us never take the simple things for granted but thank God for all the simple joys. But I cannot help musing what type of mail was in the mailbox, I hope it was filled with gorgeous letters of poetry and not some dang bills!
Every moment counts and one should live and enjoy it. Great way to communicate this message by this lovely poem.10*****
