Best Thank Youfamily Poems


From Brown Eyes To Blue

From my brown eyes to yours of turquoise blue
I must express my deepest gratitude

On the street you might have appeared fearsome
A man with an axe my friend has become

At the door I’d scratched until my paws bled
Fearing my family soon would be dead

Just as the silk curtains started to blaze
You burst in and made your way through the haze

Four pups are alive because you’re so brave
I am so thankful my family was saved

I can but lick the wounds that you incurred
To show you how grateful my barks you heard

Thankful

**I felt a little inspired by Thanksgiving, hope everyone has a good holiday!**

Turkey, ham, potatoes, yams.
Corn, turnips, green bean casserole.
Cranberry sauce.

Thanksgiving is a time of thanks.
Be with family and friends.
Go around the table full of food.
Say something you are thankful for.

I am thankful for my family.
I am thankful for a roof over my head.
I am thankful for a great feast.
I am thankful for a good job.

Now the table is cleared, and the desserts are set up.
Apple pie, pumpkin pie, cookies, cakes.
Ice cream, ambrosia, cupcakes, chocolate.

When your belly is full, unzip those pants.
Sit around the couch with family and friends.
Just being together is something miraculous.
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving everyone!
