Thanksgiving
Turkey and mayonnaise,
Berries and bread,
Comfortable quilts
Lying heaped on my bed.
Socks and libraries,
Computers and rugs,
Cute frost-kissed noses
And warm, snuggly hugs.
Siblings and Christmas
And poems and books;
Reading and writing
In warm, cozy nooks.
Pickles and bubbles
And movies and tea;
Pictures and weddings,
A birthday party.
Sweet-smelling candles,
Trees drapped in frost,
Parties till midnight
And homework that's lost.
Youth group, AWANA,
Sunday School, Church,
A sweet sanctuary,
Among the calm birch.
What have these in common–
These and much more?
Each one is something
That I'm grateful for!
