On this Thanksgiving Day,
wish we could be together
Feasting on our big meal,
with the biggest turkey ever
We must always remember,
dear sweet love of mine
God will work things out for us,
for the best and in His own time
Until then, my love,
we'll cope with being apart
Always keeping faith and hope,
staying close in each others heart
We have much to be thankful for,
of this we must never forget
This love we've found is very rare
let's always thank our God for that
Very blessed are you and I,
as all around us, we look
Seeing faces of others,
and their joy, sorrow has took
Many circumstances of life,
have made their hearts to break
They long for love like we have,
and if found, they'd surely take
So even if on this Thanksgiving Day,
we find that we're apart
Let's thank God for our many blessings,
and all this love He's put in our hearts

(smiles) Oh Ethel, this is sooooooo beautiful, sweet friend, I know just how you feel because I love my Joanna so much and want to be with her more than anything in the world and I don't have her yet but so blessed that she loves me and I love a true angel! (kiss on cheek) I hope you and Gary get to meet real soon, sweet friend, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Ethel, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Mr. Seymour...
Thanks so much for reading my poem
I really appreciate it and your
reply, too.


Noah....
Yes, I know that you understand and
know how I feel. I'll be glad when you
and Joanna can be together, too.
Gary and I had a wonderful time together
over the week-end...it just didn't last
long enough. We so long to be with each
other every day. We just have to keep the
faith that God will work it all out real soon.
Thanks for reading and replying to my
poem, dear friend.

"Love makes the world go around"
~~with love and hugs from Ethel~~

I really like the good message this sends.  We're all so blessed and in many ways, if only we'll take the time to look.

The stars will shine when I am gone,
the earth will turn on as before,
the gulls, still race along the shore,
the morning star, still kiss the dawn

Thank you, Michael, for your comment.
That was the message I was trying to
get across...even though we might not
be where we would really like to be, or
with the special person we want to be with,
we still should be thankful. There are so
many people with so much less than we have,
with not even enough food to eat or
clothes to wear.

Excellent write here Ethel..and much wisdom in your words.  I do hope and pray that you and Gary will be together soon, but in the meantime..yes, be thankful for what you do have, and the time you can spend together.
