A Grateful Heart

  Pool care for the Mister,
has of late become laborious in some ways.
Monitoring  the chemicals, skimming
 occasional leaves and  flower petals from the water,
all have become annoying to him.  I've  been
hearing more than occasional groaning
sounds,  as he goes through these dreaded daily chores.
Yesterday, all his cares had seemingly gone by the
wayside, as he leisurely relaxed in cool pool waters,
finding luxurious relief from the summer's heat.
-
O Thou Who has given us so much, mercifully
grant us one more thing: a grateful heart.
~George Herbert
