PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

May we be blessed to acknowledge all the wonders in our life

that have, for us, thus far accrued…

and to begin each day with a word of thanks…

and thoughts of gratitude. 

Today I’m thankful for vorfreude

Something we’ve felt since we were girls and boys…

It comes from the German Language

and translated it means…before joy.

We feel it just before we open presents…

before we’re about to uncover treasures…

It’s the joyful anticipation that comes

from imagining future pleasures.
