THANKSGIVING

A day for the turkey
Candied yams and pumpkin pie
The time to gather family
To gives thanks, is really why

For, the bounty on our tables
And the freedoms, we all share
To do what'ere we're able
To travel here and there

Sometimes, we take for granted
The blessings of this land
From seeds, forefathers planted
Grown into something, so grand

It's not perfect, in any way
But, nothing will ever be
This place is still the greatest
"My country, 'tis of thee".

Del "Abe" Jones
