Yours Thankfully - For Thankful Contest
Yours Thankfully
I rushed, I rushed, to catch my bus
Ignored the building urge in me
And tried to fight the urgency
Could not give in... but now I must
I pledge no more complacency
Whilst praying for that open door
Cross legged, it seemed a mile or more
So, thank you for the vacancy
Oh Lord, I sit so gratefully
I’d feared humiliation
From this my mocking nation
For I did not get here gracefully
