Thanksgiving




By Sherry Clark Long


Uncles, aunts, and cousins,
Children by the score;
Pots and pans and casseroles,
Recipes galore;


Family members gathered
With happiness to share;
Someone telling tall tales,
Laughter everywhere.


A cozy fire to warm us,
Pumpkins picked for pie;
Neighbors and acquaintances
And friends just dropping by --


Today, we're celebrating
The bounty of the earth.
We're grateful for our blessings,
For life and all its worth.
