In late November every year
there is a time we celebrate.
These days of bounty we revere;
with family and friends relate.
There is a time we celebrate
with joyous feasts of food and drink.
Near end of Autumn, there's a date
that we address to make us think.
These days of bounty we revere;
the fire aglow, sweet scent of food.
With family, we gather near
for prayers of thanks and joyful mood.
With family and friends relate
our joys of honoring this day.
The same next year, we will await
Thanksgiving Day again, we pray.
