Thank You
You give a gift and you expect
Acknowledgement, at least,
Yet somehow, in this current age,
The thank you nod has ceased.
No note, no phone call - it gets worse -
No words when face to face.
To me, this lack of manners
Is an absolute disgrace.
Of course, we don’t bestow these gifts
For something in return
But thank you etiquette’s a basic
Everyone should learn.
