A Blessing of Thanks

It is Thanksgiving
So all I will say
Is I wish to give thanks 
For these blessings today.

For all what’s around me
So I don’t feel alone
Where there’s understanding and love
The blessing of home.

And there’s the blessing of friends
For standing by me
The gift I so cherish
Is their loyalty.

And even with riches
I couldn’t buy it with wealth
So I thank God I am well
For I’m blessed with good health.

“So I wish you all well
And thank you for listening
God bless you today and have
A Happy Thanksgiving!”
