THANKSGIVING

THANKSGIVING

Hi, God and Jesus Christ
It's only me again
Just another divorcee
With the usual sins;
Tomorrow's our Thanksgiving
And I just want to say
How much I appreciate
That very special day.

It's not about the turkey
Or the pumpkin pie
It's not about a football game
Nor is it about me and I;
Sometimes when I am
Just eating all alone
I bow my head to pray
And hear you say "stay strong."

Thanks for the sweet music
And ears to hear it with
And thanks for the Autumn leaves
And eyes...oh, what a gift;
Thanks for the taste of food
And for the touch of Love
And most of all, precious God
For your blessings from above.

So today I give many thanks
For the simple things
The sunshine or the fog
Not for jewells and rings;
I thank you for my kids
For many dear friends
And thank you for myself
From beginning to the end.

You know how I love Camo
And how I love You both
Thank you for my home here
And my friends down South;
Thanks for health and humour
For each breath I take
And I'll talk to You later
'Cuz I've a pie to bake!
