A Tuesday List

A thankful list for a Tuesday:

Down-soft snow blanket when drought looms large.
Warm house when many Syrians have not a cold one.
Shelves full of books when some cannot read.
A friend to laugh with when many are lonely.
Language to think our souls when some are mute.
And last, a fresh new book acquires a cover.
Oh for courage to say, "This book is ours."
