Happy Thanksgiving America

America I love you, and I’ll always be grateful to you 
Your people generous and thoughtful in all they say and do
You welcome guests with open arms your hospitality sublime
You pick up folks when they are down you give of your last dime
Today I hope you celebrate with loving family and friends around
And know a place in this grateful heart for you will always be found
