Thanksgiving Day

Thank you God for this bountiful
Harvest,  we gather together for
Another year of cookery and devotion, to
Nourish our bodies and our souls, while
Kindred spirits convey the love, that is
Shared throughout the year, eternally
Grateful for friends and family that are near.
Incredible feast that is devoured, as the
Volume rises on the chatter,  contented
In the knowledge there will be more
Nougats of sweetness on the platter, we
Gather and give thanks to God today

Dear God, we thank you for this day
And all the blessings you bestow, may
Your love and light; always guide our way
