A Thanksgiving Wish

I wish I could sit ‘round the corner, And take in all of the clamor; I’d hear laughter and conversations, I would hear what really matters! I would hear dear familiar voices, Distinctive laughs known know right away. Dinnerware clanging with silverware, With the smells of Thanksgiving Day!!! I would thank my God for family, Both at home and those far away. If I could just sit ‘round the corner, That would be a spectacular day. What you have, when gathered together, Is a gift every heart longs to share. The gift of just loving each other, And the prize of each person that’s there. Though I’m not sitting there ‘round the corner, My heart is most certainly there. My love, adoration and thankfulness, Is in spirit, at everyone’s chair. I love you dear family, and send my best wishes: For holiday health, wealth and mirth. Tis Thanksgiving Day! Thank God for this day It’s the best seat to have on the earth.
