Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving Working men, and Working women, And Children, Who are left behind Happy Thanksgiving Street’s poets, Happy Thanksgiving Low-wage happy face, And the running delivery man Happy Thanksgiving, Streets, Trees, Lakes, Mountains Forests, And prairies Of America Happy Thanksgiving, Sisters and fathers In the big churches Or in their tiniest houses Happy Thanksgiving Soldier, Policeman, And firefighter. Happy Thanksgiving My friends My street mates My Café mates, My bus mates, Who is watching me And I did not notice. Happy Thanksgiving Who is sleeping, And who is dreaming, Who is on the road, Who is traveling By Plane, Boat, Car, Or who is orbiting Around the planet. Happy Thanksgiving Mexicans, Africans, Asians, And the European: The first who came And the last who are trying. Happy Thanksgiving The lost and found Happy Thanksgiving given Native America Happy Thanksgiving to the lost and found Happy Thanksgiving Seniors, Men, Women, Teens, Children, And new born babies. Happy Thanksgiving Eileen. Happy Thanksgiving America.
