"sunday Dinner"

A day for us all to be together as a family and have a feast.
Everything that will fill the stomach's of a beauty or a beast.
Cooked all day and filled our table with all that has a great taste. 
All that great food and a desert no one will waste.
The day we gather we are filled with happiness and love.
Being thankful to our good Lord above.
Giving thanks for us all and the food we eat.
Spending the day together is a great treat.
                 Teresa Skyles/Theoklapoet

I am coming back to the beginning with you, Teresa, since I think I 've seen most of the first page showing of yours. This is very nostaligic and makes me miss those wonderful sunday dinners I grew up on in Iowa. Thanks for your kind comment today. luv, andrea

You need to check the second line for a mistake. You did not capitalize the word Lord which is the correct way to write it here. Sara
