Thanksgiving
Some of us come from families large,
some are an only child and, then again,
some of us never had Family at all.
With an absent father and a drunk mother
it has been difficult to feel the word:
Family
All these roles like actors on a globe,
the Mothers ... Fathers ... Sisters ... Brothers ...
Aunts ... Uncles ... Cousins ...
and precious Grandparents !!
Now in my life I've arrived to a Soup Family
by the Grace that knew just what I needed.
What a wonderful surprise!
May the Great Spirit bring blessings
on this Our poetic Family.
Thank You for whatever part you wish to be.
As for me ... I'm just a Child
on an endless journey
in the Great Pumpkin Patch of life!
So here's to cranberries
and gravy too
with lots of love from me to you!
I'm beginning to feel like a Hallmark card
LOL ... just truly glad to be here!
Happy Holiday!
