D's middle name is Grace...

My home is enchanted as all should be

Magic dances about often unseen

I open my bureau that was empty before

But now it is filled with all that I wore

The bed sheets tossed and covers astray

But when I return it’s tidy and made

I head downstairs with breakfast in mind

But I’ll be cleaning the kitchen ‘cause I didn't have time

I step onto the tile and switch on the light

Again I'm surprised and smile in delight

The counters are clean the dishes all wiped

“It’s magic” I say not the least bit affright

Years have gone by and the magic stayed lit

Through times when I didn't deserve such a gift

I took it for granted, never gave it much thought

But the kindness persisted as if it were bought

But now that I see the fortunate I've known

I must honor the giver with all of my soul

I’ll always give thanks bent on one knee

It was Amazing Grace that took care of me
