Thanksgiving

Take heed do not forget heritage.
Being thankful should not fall on rage.
Celebrate Thanksgiving
We have dropped this sacred holiday.
Commercialism, no way to pray,
Fiscal unforgiving,

ps...I have noticed lately there is less and less holiday decorations being sold for Thanksgiving,, we go from Halloween to Christmas to quick for that monetary value.

November 12, 2011 at 10:48 PM Good message in this one. I've simplified the decorations in recent years and started to focus more on cherishing holidays with families. The trappings aren't as important as the people giving thanks--so aptly said in line 5. Best wishes in the contest. Karen
