thank you



sk
dear (person who will remain nameless),
thank you,
thank you for being
there.
thank you for being
present
thank you for listening
for helping
for not helping
for gypsies
and starwars
and too many cranberry orange muffins
thank you for
childhood
and adulthood
and everything in between.
and everything outside
everything happy
and sad
thank you for
my heart
and soul
and elvis presley
and john prine
thank you
for everything

    I love the growth that the narrator shows in this poem, I think it shows a lot that they are thanking someone for impacting their life in both the good and bad way.
