A Precious Lesson
There is a great pleasure
In wanting
The object of desire
Seems so perfect
So useful
So necessary
You wonder how you
Ever got along without it
And you know that you must
Have it now
Closets full of neglected
Once-desired objects
Tell me that
It was the wanting
That was important
I have learned
A precious lesson
I have learned
To want
What I have

I love this! It just keeps getting better. I say "Being thankful is wanting something even though you already have it." I think that's one of the secrets of life.
