Pilgrims, Indians
Together at Harvest Feast
Thankful for bounty
Each gives the Great Spirit thanks

A nice festive tanka, well done

Sometimes you have to let go and move on,
But never let go of the memories.

Dennis~

Blessings are bestowed
Spirits joined in peacefulness
Many moons ago
Oh, but that we could return
To those days of yesteryear

*Thank you for the inspirational grace of your Tanka.

This my prayer for you
Gratitude and Joy be yours
and all those you love
God's Spirit fill you with Grace
and His Light shine upon you

A special tanka prayer for you, my friend, in gratitude for the joy you bring, especially the joy of this most beautiful Tanka of thanksgiving. Love, Elie

A lovely Thanksgiving reminder that we are all God's children. Thank you, Dennis.

Great Tanka!
Good spirit for the upcoming holiday!

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I hate your socks. I'd like to burn them!
