Taken For Granted Please tell me … have I taken you for granted lately dear? The love and generosity you give throughout the year? For try though I, to never lose perspective come what may, I wonder if my good intentions ever go astray. The little things you do for me, I so appreciate, I hope you know I notice all the efforts that you make. Too often I become absorbed; distractions come and go, While little things are overlooked in daily life, I know. So if I haven't shown my love in all sincerity, I'd like to thank you dear, for all the joy you bring to me. /Kit McCallum |

You can take me for granted if you want Or take me to the cleaners You can take me out to dinner For some little cocktail wieners... Take me for everything I've got I won't complain a bit Take me for granted or take me in stride But, please, just TAKE ME, KIT!!!!!!! |

Laughing at Balladeer, but your poem was terrific Kit, and a good reminder for us to tell someeone today that we appreciate them. ~*~ I write ~ Therefore I am ~*~ |

We all take someone for granted at one time or another, but, thank you for reminding us to stop and give thanks. Your words of wisdom are refreshing. Melton |

Kit, this is lovely, and so true, I wonder why people take others for granted, and sometimes they don't mean to, it just happens in relationships, oh my, I'm a rambling rose this evening..... Kathleen Blake |

Either you're as great an actress as you are poet, or you're not often guilty of taking people for granted. *S* For you seem to have a gift (or make the effort *S*) to make people feel special. This is written beautifullly and also serves to make us pause to think if we're taking people for granted... Well done! |
