Teach, Joy, and Give Thanks
Our Teacher,
Time,
A unit of measure.
The Spirit,
Lives on forever.
Our Minds,
Always seeking pleasure.
Our Hearts,
Are feeling the pressure.
Our Bodies,
All here together.
Our lives,
Meant to be the treasure.
The Present,
We are It's Creator.
And GOD,
He was the Professor.
JOY
I pledge allegiance to the joy,
Hidden within my heart.
Everything I catch me falling,
Is a chance for a fresh start.
When your feeling low,
Let your heart know,
Just

I Give Thanks
I give thanks for gifts from creative ways
And deep blue skies on sunny days
I give thanks for the kind, caring gestures
And wide open freedom in golden pastures
I give thanks for guidance, strength and survival
Born in the miracles of granted revival
I give thanks for simple things in each catalyst
That launches my soul, as I emerge from

Please Give Thanks
Today, I need to say
Thank you to all who pass my way
Thank you is a word,
That is not so much in play
Too busy to say thank you
Too stressed to share a smile
Some just can't be bothered,
It stands out a mile.
Etiquette and good manners
Are they becoming things of the past
Saying please and thank you.
Are needed, meant

Above All I Give Thanks
Grateful am I for the gold coined sun that warms my heart
and thankful too for all the stars that shine so bright;
I am indebted to my maker for these blessed hands that can,
write poems of great valor, with a mind that works just fine.
I am beholden for the eyes that see

We Give Thanks Three Days Before Thankgivings Day
Thanksgivings is three days away.
We celebrate in land of the fey.
Heartfelt song doth rapidly convey,
Our thanks for people for whom we pray.
The meanness of old Widow Gray
She’s sour, since being pushed away.
But secretly, we know she’s okay.
She supports orphans down yonder way.
We are thankful for our Uncle Jay.
Whose wandering feet don’t let him stay.
His amazing

In Everything Give Thanks
Every worry, every sorrow
Brings hope for tomorrow
Every sadness, every pain
Brings a rainbow after the rain
Every doubt, all the fears
Brings assurance through the years
Every whisper from the night
Brings laughter in the light
Every silent feeling of dread
Brings a joy that is well fed
Every lingering doubt or question
Brings a love from the heart’s expression
Every mystery in the shadows
Brings

When Should We Give Thanks
Have you ever wondered when we should give thanks
for all the gifts that we’ve been granted…
for all the blessings we’ve received
for a life that’s been enchanted?
I think twice a day would be sufficient
Yes…twice a day seems right
When we open our eyes each morning
and before we close them every night.

If They Could Give Thanks They Would -Triple Ninette, Contest
faint
chatter
in slight wind
rainbow colors
flash within sunset
graceful soft wings
hovering
between
sips
one
tiny
nectar drop
floating downward
caught in eye of sun
rainbow flashes
now grounded
colored
blank
ant
drawn near
sipping slow
from cement cup
as others claim stake
of sugared drink
he blends in
darkness
falls
