It's nearly time for National Poetry Day 2024. The theme is #counting, so I wrote a counting poem for #NationalPoetryDay about counting the things in life that really matter - things that we often take for granted.
Never forget to count those things that make you who you are.

Count Your Life
Count your fingers
Count your toes
Count your ears
your eyes and nose
Count your stomach
Count your veins
Count your lungs
your heart and brain
Count your seconds
Count your vows
Count your smiles
your ows and wows
Count your rivers
Count your seas
Count your birds
your fields and trees
Count your courage
Count your strides
Count your truth
your love and pride
Count your tears
Count your scars
Count your life
and lucky stars
