Thanksgiving





THANKSGIVING
The fall wreath has been hung
Pumpkins on display
Gorgeous leaves strewn
Intertwined with red berries
Gourds here and there
The cornucopia overflows
The table is ready
Place settings perfected
Come to the table
Enjoy the feast
Prepared by each hand
Partake in the bounty
Savor the conversations
Embrace each loved one
Linger awhile
So thankful for all
The love and encouragement
For provision and plenty
For the blessings bestowed
To family and friends
Let this day remind us
To always be thankful
For each new day
That is given to us
But not always promised
Today I am grateful
Today I am thankful
May I continue to experience
This each and every day
