Saying Grace

On Thanksgiving we praise, how wild an occasion we say thanks for our wealth as well as our health although it seems there is an underlying correlation Those healthier, in terms normally seem to be wealthier To say our thanks and give grace One seems almost to need a decent income to say the least How sad is that for our healthcare needs One needs to pull a card, to lessen their worry So this Thanksgiving, I really am glad for insurance, without it I might be down under in debt, or possibly in death. Oh happy Thanksgiving to you Have a good day and say grace For those less fortunate than you (I intended this to be happy and cheerful but hey sometimes for happiness we need to see sadness?)

Sometimes the sad fact is we are most thankful for the things that mean the most to us, like family, being in good health etc. We should always first and foremost give God thanks that we are still here by his grace to give thanks for something. It could all be gone in a heartbeat. Loved your poem. Blessings Carl
