Thanksgiving Wish

We watch leaves to ground glide,
As suddenly it’s colder and grey outside.

Gardens are put to bed,
Indoors we nest in our homestead. 

Grateful for loved ones and our home,
From which now we’d rather not roam.

Time to cherish happiness and health,
For that is our true wealth.

Thanksgiving is a simple holiday,
Feast and joy without gifts and gaudy display.

Safe travels if you will wander,
While the season’s blessings you ponder.
