Be Thankful

I have a roof

sky high over my head

with not a rain drop to dread. 

I have the symphony of voices

laughing echoing through the house.

With faces I love;

I have my family.

I have plates ,

to give me dates

with a buffet before me. 

Just once.

to taste home.

With love in the air

that clears 

the tears of yesterday.

I am thankful,

for the world,

the air,

the trees,

the sky,

my family and I.

My past loves and all friends

with good amends

in this day

of peace.

This Thanksgiving Day.

For this day forward

count the little things

as treasures and blessings.

No matter how big or small

It will sure get you far. 

What are you thankful for?
