Coming Home

Thanksgiving is the best of times.
I love to hear the front door chimes,
Knowing it means that family
Is coming home, so we can be,
Together for a little while,
To share our laughter and a smile.
The day goes by so quickly though.
Then when it's time for them to go,
There's something that we always do.
We take a moment to review
The year that's past, the blessings brought,
There are so many and a lot
Lies in the fact, we recognize
Commitment in each other's eyes,
To keeping family ties so strong,
They will sustain us all year long!

the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost

pegasus111:  I'm sorry to hear you are far away from family. They do brighten the holidays, plus other times as well! At least most of them do!  There may be a hold out or two in the mix! There is in my family!
