Listen to poem:

Eternal Flight of Thanksgiving

Eternal Flight
David J Walker 

Gaggles of geese
Cross the faint light from the
Three-quarter moon in the east
Gliding 
	In the ancient art of landing
Perfectly on the smooth surface
Of the pond
Between the house and the 
Nearby highway

The last of the fading light before 
Thanksgiving Night sets in

Sensory space
The place where I can 
Truly count my blessings

Let my prayer begin with the 
Chorus of geese 
Bedding down for the night

Eternal flight 
Calling me home
navigated by
the coming moonlight
