Thanksgiving
In the bosom of compassion
In the comfort of the home
We will gather with our families
And will see how they have grown
On the table there is always a cornucopia of treats
A centerpiece that’s fully blooming
A selection of tasty sweets
While outside the foliage’s glowing
And emotions, it evokes
Inspiration that is growing
Magnificence, it does invoke
It is time to offer blessings
It is time to appreciate
As this holiday is vital
And we need to celebrate
So in sum, we bestow honor
And festivities embrace
On this day of commemoration
It holds for us a special place - By Alona Perlin.
