Giving Thanks

Giving thanks for Thanksgiving
I know it's God's will
That he brought us great joy
With our Valentine, Lil
She arrived yesterday
With a glint in her eyes
Flying in the last moment
What a pleasant surprise!
Tomorrow's Thanksgiving
And she must fly away
So as in daylight savings
We've turned it back a day
We're celebrating today
On Thanksgiving she'll go
On a 6:00 AM flight
Back to New Mexico
Her visit was quick
For she has her own life
She brought love and joy
For both me and my wife
Lil is our granddaughter
In case you did not know
She'll be leaving fond memories
As she returns to the flow
Lily, I hope you know how much your visit means to Gram and me
Love, Pop
