Happy Thanksgiving

It's Thanksgiving and the time again
To stop and note each blessing.
Among them, we must count of course,
The turkey and the dressing.
We're thankful for the pumpkin pie,
Cranberries and candied yams,
And if we can find space for more
Some good rolls spread with jam.

We've watched the Macy's grand parade,
And await a football game.
To miss a single one of these
Would surely be a shame;
But these are incidentals,
What I'm truly thankful for
Is everyone of those who've come
Through our Thanksgiving door.
Thank you God for all these dear ones
Who are today surrounding me
And another happy Thanksgiving
To store in my memory.

Priorities in good order.  How true it is, that all the other things are miniscule in comparison to the company of loved ones.  I enjoyed this.
