Thankful Hearts

Thankful Hearts
For all blessings God gave to you and me Be ever thankful for all that we see . . . . . . .
Glorious blue sky and sun shining bright Clouds drifting by, fluffy carpets of white Moon the illuminating cosmic eye Surrounded by diamond star strewn sky. Rise and fall of oceanic motion Astounding scene of waves in commotion Sea life creatures, some that have not been seen That’ve role play in ocean aquamarine. Stupendous flowers and magical trees Fruit of vineyards and sweet honey from bees The fields of gold where the barley grain grows All the nourishment that the earth bestows. The array of animals in the wild Domestic pets loved as would be a child Statuesque horses for mankind to ride Sheep and cattle gracing the countryside. Birdsong all daylong in sweet melody Flying o’er the breeze so elegantly Every sunrise and glorious sunset Painted by an artist who's of the best. There’s so much to be thankful to God for Thank Him for everything for evermore. 24th November 2021

Hi Belle, This is a well-written poem that embodies what “ Thanksgiving” is all about. We must be thankful for our many blessings big or small. Thanksgiving is everything day because each new day is “ something “to be thankful for. Well done. Happy Thanksgiving from me to you from across the pond-Alexis
