Franklin Price Poet Rhyme

It's the Ninth of November

It's the Ninth of November

It's the ninth of November
It's time to remember
I've much to be thankful for 
I've got a good life
And a wonderful wife
Many friends and family galore

Got food on the table
Still walk 'cause I'm able
Have a leakless roof over my head
Live in a nice 'hood
All my neighbors are good
At night I sleep in a nice bed

I'm retired, that's right
Have no traffic to fight
That means I'm older of course
When I worked it was fun
But I'm glad I am done
Looking back, I have no remorse

Hope you're as thankful as me
That's as much as can be
In enjoyment in life I am rich
Have no money to burn
But for little I yearn
And for little about which to *****

It's not long 'til Thanksgiving
Thank God I'm still living
In closing to you I must say
Hope you're as happy as I
That's as happy as pie
Which I'm going to have Turkey day
