On a day in late November When the sky is chill and gray When leaves have fallen, and birds have flown And they are on their way It's time to bring the harvest in And give thanks to God for it all We give Him thanks for everything He's done for us this fall. So as we near the end of year On this Thanksgiving day Give thanks to God for all the blessings That He has sent our way. November 1998 Happy Thanksgiving, Everybody! God bless America, my home sweet home. [This message has been edited by Elizabeth (edited 11-21-2001).] |

Elizabeth I have read so many Thanksgiving poems on the net over the past few days, and yours is the first that gives credit where the credit is due, to God, which somehow seems such an unspoken word these days. I remember "Praise God from whom all blessings flow", as a kid, and I wish we could all remember the source of our blessings, as your poem has set out. I wish you and yours a wonderful Thanksgiving Day and may God Bless. ~*~ Carpe' Diem ~*~ |
